In the child psychiatry department of the MPEA Peyre Plantade, a Therapeutic Education program specific to ADHD has been set up for children and their parents. This program consists of different workshops whose aim is to reduce the ADHD repercussions on the daily life of children and their families and thus improve their quality of life.
