What is the Membership Committee?

The membership committee is dedicated to furthering the mission of APSARD by recruiting and maintaining a diverse group of researchers, educators and clinicians in the field of ADHD and related disorders.

The membership committee is continually exploring new ways to “spread the word” about the value of being a member in APSARD and exploring additional opportunities to bring value to members.

Built upon the pillars of a collegial exchange of information, education, collaboration, advocacy and mentorship; APSARD members strive to improve the lives of individuals struggling with ADHD and related disorders.

Recent efforts have included:

• The “Ask the Experts” webinar series
• “Refer a friend” APSARD business cards and referral links on the APSARD web page
• Membership testimonials from a diverse group of members
• The student research awards
• Modernizing the APSARD website to better serve as a resource for ADHD clinicians
• Outreach to allied organizations both nationally and internationally
• Listing of upcoming ADHD related meetings
• APSARD membership discounts for ADHD CME initiatives
• APSARD podcasts
• Links to ADHD self-assessment tools on the APSARD website
• Free subscriptions to the Journal of Attention Disorders for APSARD members

APSARD Mentoring Program

The APSARD Mentoring Program (Members Only) is led by the membership committee with the goal of matching professionals interested in mentoring and being mentored in the field of ADHD and related disorders. Within this program, we aim to share experiences, build community, and cultivate relationships within APSARD. The membership of APSARD reflects a wealth of experience across several domains and disciplines, so this is a unique opportunity to share ideas and learn from one another.
