Our Mission with Commitment

There is so much miscommunication on diagnosing and treating ADHD that with your donation, we, together, can advance the care with research-based, clinically influenced guidelines. We are the only U.S. non-profit foundation supporting the development and publication of these guidelines.

Without United States adult ADHD guidelines providing guidance to healthcare providers, the field remains adrift with ineffective and unproven approaches. Misinformation (inaccurate information) and disinformation (information deliberately undermining patients’ pursuit of evidence-based diagnosis and treatment) continue to keep people from seeking a diagnosis and treatment that can transform their lives, relationships, and self-confidence.

We are setting a fund-raising goal of $100,000 for this project to cover the development of a dissemination program of the Guidelines when published. And every single donation from individuals like you will get us there. For updates on our progress, register at MyADHDFoundation.

Donations to the My ADHD Foundation are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. The My ADHD Foundation does not accept funding from the pharmaceutical industry or companies with commercial ADHD products.

When you click the Donate button, you will notice the donation goes through the Upstate Foundation website. ALL your donation dollars come to the MyADHDFoundation.

Thank you for your consideration in helping support this critical goal.
