Discussing issues with policy makers and government officials can pave the way for better understanding of your family's situation and lead to them making more informed decisions. But if you've never done this before, it can be an intimidating prospect.
This is a link to a manual that CHADD developed to help guide you in the process. It's called the CHADD Advocacy Manual. The manual is in very clear, reassuring language and will help you realize that simply telling your experience can be very powerful and effective.
