Conclusions
ADHD, psychological disorders
Like many other psychological disorders, ADHD runs in families and pediatric primary care represents a promising context for routine screening of multiplex ADHD families. Yet, many issues are at play, both attitudinal and structural, when engaging with families living in under-resourced settings due to continued systemic inequities, mistrust, and stigma. The qualitative themes generated from the current pilot study represent a first step in understanding the perspectives and experiences of stakeholders – parents of children receiving care and providers and staff providing care at urban pediatric primary care clinics. This work and future research inspired by it can lead us closer to discovering the best way to identify and treat familial ADHD.
