🌟 ADHD Awareness Month: Understanding, Supporting, and Healing Together
Every October, the world recognizes ADHD Awareness Month — a time to increase understanding of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, break the stigma, and empower individuals and families living with ADHD.
At Lake Mary Behavioral & Infusion Center, we believe awareness is the first step toward healing. This month, we’re proud to highlight the importance of ADHD care, share how we can help, and announce exciting news about our growing commitment to the community.
