CHADD Bergen County to Host Discussion About ADHD, Social Skills and Relationships

Bergen County CHADD Expert Speaker Series will continue with Caroline Maguire, MEd, ACCG, PCC speaking about ADHD and social skills and relationships on Monday, Feb. 6 from 8-9:15 p.m. via Zoom. She will help answer parents’ questions including, “Does your child have a hard time making and keeping friends? Should you step in? If so, when? And do what?”

Attendees will learn to:

  • Understand how executive function challenges directly affect social skills.
  • Coach a child or teen to initiate connection and express needs with peers and adults.
  • Identify and harness their child’s special talents to problem solve, make friends and build self-confidence.
  • Explore the evidence-based coaching techniques that have been shown to help struggling children and teens with ADHD.
  • Identify the roadblocks that can get in the way of open communication, and how to get around them.

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session. The meeting is open to all who seek support and information, including parents, clinicians and teachers. A virtual handout will be available to all attendees. For questions, contact Ellen Schwartz at [email protected].
