You may be asking yourself, what do I do now?

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”16px”] [vc_empty_space height=”16px”][vc_column_text]If your child has recently been diagnosed with INAD you may not even know where to begin. Chances are you’ve never heard about INAD or know what this means in terms of your child’s future. You’re probably feeling overwhelmed, shattered, scared, and possibly relief in finally receiving a diagnosis, a name, for the symptoms and changes that your child has been experiencing.
Many people find it helpful to start by learning as much as they can about INAD and getting answers to what is likely an infinite number of questions.

A great place to start is our website, where we do our best to post the most up to date information about INAD, research studies, clinical trials, and education and support opportunities that can help you as you adjust to raising a child with INAD.
