Create 4 Focus is an organization that promotes creative activities for teens with ADHD. Our approach is based on research that reveals that creative activities stimulate the production of serotonin and increase the uptake of dopamine, which is lacking in many teens with ADHD. By impacting serotonin and dopamine levels, creative activities have been shown to increase focus and decrease depression and anxiety.

6 million teens ages 13 – 17 suffer from ADHD each day (CDC). ADHD is not just a problem because of the lack of attention and focus. ADHD is also linked to anxiety and depression. The most common way to address ADHD is to provide prescription drugs for teens with ADHD. However, even with medication, many teens still suffer. Engaging in creative activities is one avenue that can help teens reduce stress and increase focus.
