Bright, verbal, and capable, but still struggling?

Join us at the Smart Kids Parent Conference for Dr. Alexander Morris-Wood’s session: “What is Nonverbal LD: How to Help Your Child.”

Nonverbal Learning Disability (NVLD) is often misunderstood and frequently masked by early strengths. This session will help parents understand the pattern of challenges—organization, social understanding, visual processing—and learn practical ways to support confidence, independence, and long-term success, especially through high school and the transition to college.

Children with ADHD and learning differences are often defined by their hardest moments. Over time, those perceptions can shape peer relationships, teacher expectations, and a child’s own self-esteem.

This session will help parents understand how reputations form, why they’re so hard to shake, and, most importantly, what you can do. You’ll walk away with practical advocacy language, strategies to repair social missteps, and tools to protect your child’s sense of belonging.

Join us for expert-led breakout sessions and meaningful conversations that support families navigating learning and attention differences.
