Happy ADHD Empowerment Month!

Twenty years ago, the U.S. Senate established a national ADHD Awareness Day to spur greater understanding of the condition that today impacts at least 7 percent of children and 4 percent of adults in the U.S. For two decades, our focus was trained outward — on how to puncture myths, disseminate truths, and secure support among neurotypical populations. The campaign worked. Virtually no one is unaware of ADHD today.

Which is why ADDitude is shifting the focus inward this October — from awareness to empowerment, from convincing to celebrating, and from external to internal acceptance. Each day of ADHD Empowerment Month, we highlight a different ADHD attribute by showcasing the stories and strengths of our readers. You told us how ADHD is innovative. ADHD in unapologetic. ADHD is resilience. ADHD is transformative, and so much more. Follow those stories on Instagram and Facebook.

As a supplemental resource, this daily calendar was designed to guide you through 31 small but important steps to celebrate ADHD this October. Use it to do your part to further the idea of neurodivergent empowerment.
