Embrace different.Flourish anyway.

A PROJECT OF THE NEUROSPICE OF MIND
Culture, understanding & ADHD — because context matters.
Haitian Girls & ADHD is a dedicated space for girls and families, grounded in the understanding that ADHD is never experienced outside culture, expectations, family, and identity. In many ways, this project is a gift to my younger self, the kind of resource I needed growing up before I even knew I needed it.
