Useful Links
When doing internet research, I find that being provided links to related subjects
and groups are of great help in expanding my knowledge and making my work easier.
So to help visitors to this site, I am providing several links in this NewsNote
that will become part of a new links page. If you visit these links, you will
find that several of these groups have extensive links to many other organizations.
However, I think each is useful in itself and is a good place to go as you look
for additional information.
Links:
www.cacld.org The Connecticut
Association of Children with Learning Disabilities is “a regional non
profit organization that supports individuals families and professionals by
providing information, education and consultation while promoting public awareness
and understanding” (Their mission statement). It is an excellent organization
that I highly recommend.
www.ricklavoie.com
Rick Lavoie is a well known speaker on the subject of Learning Disabilities.
He has the ability to shed light on a difficult subject. There is excellent
material on his site.
www.HealthCalls.com
This is the site of Marc Schwartz, M.D. Dr. Schwartz is interested in ADD in
adults and his site contains a great deal of information including a check list.
www.chadd.org CHADD (Children
and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a major national
organization whose focus is Attention Deficit Disorder. They sponsor a major
conference and have a bi-monthly magazine.
www.cabf.org The Child and
Adolescent Bipolar Foundation is a parent led group primarily for families with
children diagnosed with or at risk for bipolar disorder. They have excellent
information on their site that would be of interest to anyone looking for information
on the subject.
www.ldanatl.org The Learning
Disability Association of America is a major organization with information,
memberships, a conference and a journal. Its focus is LD and not ADD, but if
it is LD you are looking into, this is a good site.
www.adaa.org The Anxiety
Disorders Association of America is a national group that is a source of information
about anxiety disorders. They have a well organized site that breaks down anxiety
into the various diagnostic categories. You can then click on your specific
interest.
I hope that you check out some of these links, and that they can be of use
to you.
