Welcome to ADHD New Zealand

You'll already know that having ADHD has many benefits as well as challenges and you may be looking for additional support to succeed in living with ADHD. ​

You may also know that ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and that an estimated one in 20 New Zealanders have ADHD. Unfortunately, ADHD is still frequently misunderstood and when it remains undiagnosed can cause distress in family, school, work and social situations.

Feel free to have a look around and get a better understanding of ADHD, gain advice from our extensive list of healthcare professionals, support from organisations from across New Zealand or meet like-minded people on our closed ADHD NZ Facebook page or at local events.

Our vision is to advance the ADHD community by providing practical information and support. If you'd like ongoing support, you can become a financial member or contact us to find out more.
