A Special Presentation by Dr. Stephen Hinshaw

Understanding ADHD in Girls & Women

For decades, ADHD research focused primarily on boys.

As a result, many girls and women went unnoticed, misunderstood, or misdiagnosed.

In this special presentation, internationally recognized ADHD researcher Dr. Stephen Hinshaw explores how ADHD presents differently in girls and women, why it is often overlooked, and what families and educators can do to better support these learners.

Featured Topics

✓ ADHD in girls and women
