This July the WFADHD Task Force on Cross-Border ADHD Care Transitions has published the Referral Toolkit and Policy Framework on the transition of care of individuals with ADHD between countries. 

This document serves as both a clinical support resource and a symbol of international collaboration, underscoring the shared responsibility of global mental health professionals to reduce barriers, prevent treatment gaps, and foster mutual recognition of expertise across borders.
