young people and families of those affected by AD/HD: Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder. ADD-NI provides a unique and specialised service, based

to promote and support the needs of those affected by AD/HD. At ADD-NI we firmly
believe ’all children with AD/HD deserve the best start in life’ and that this
can be best achieved by ’supporting and empowering children, parents and adults’
with early interventions in order to nurture their ability to achieve their full
potential and to cope better with difficulties associated with living with the
effects of AD/HD. Moving from dependence to empowerment To provide support and
information and raise awareness of the disorder across the province To work in
partnership with children, young people and adults affected by AD/HD, their
