Maureen Bechard, M.S., is a licensed professional school counselor who has loved working with middle school students for more than 30 years. She has promoted a greater understanding of how ADHD affects the lives of adolescents during their middle school years. In her efforts to educate students, parents, teachers and administrators about executive function deficits, she has found that the strategies that are good for those with ADHD, are best practice strategies for all students.
Maureen believes that all students with ADHD should be supported in their efforts to succeed. These creative youth can inspire the world to be a brighter, more positive place.
Karen Huberty, M.Ed., has a passion for teaching students with ADHD for the last 20 years. Karen has presented on executive functions within her district, at the Minnesota Education Academy, and at the 2018 ADHD International Conference. Karen has received 19 grants from the Education Minnesota Foundation for Excellence in Teaching and Learning. These grants have allowed her to create and implement best practice strategies for students with ADHD in the classroom. By shifting our mindset about executive function needs, she believes we can educate students, staff and families to create an environment in which all will succeed.

Testimonials
ADDitude Magazine Webinar Listener
"The information you provided not only will help me better understand my DAPE students, but also my own son. As I sat and listened I kept thinking how beneficial it would be to have him in a class like yours. Children are different learners than
when we were in school, and not just special ed students, all students. You have recognized this and have provided wonderful tools to meet everyone’s needs."
Graduate Class Student
"The class was super helpful with realistic ideas to support teachers in their work with students and families and the presenters obviously have a great depth of knowledge and passion for this work."
