Fifth Annual Learning Differences Seminar
The Hamilton Institute presents the Fifth Annual Learning Differences Seminar, with Dr. Gregory Fabiano delivering the keynote address, “New Directions in Intervention and Treatment for Children with ADHD.”
Interested in discovering new and innovative approaches to supporting students with ADHD?
The time is ripe to consider the best ways to support students with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in school and at home.
Dr. Fabiano will share highly-studied and research-supported new directions being taken to support children with ADHD. His presentation, as well as a follow-up Q&A will allow for conversation about how to put these approaches in place. Innovations in treatment to be discussed include positive-behavior supports within the classroom, effective parenting strategies, and a general shift from a symptoms-based, deficit model towards approaches that promote academic and social-emotional skill development. Future directions for how to best support every child in achieving their potential will be discussed. Educators, parents, caregivers, clinicians, and individuals with ADHD are encouraged to attend.
