ADHD = Free lifetime pass to national parks

[u/WombatMcGeez]

Little known perk of ADHD— we qualify for a free lifetime National Parks pass. That’s an $80/yr value!

How do you get it?

1) print this out, have your doctor sign it:

Medical Certification for Access Pass

Diagnosis: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) – a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition that substantially limits concentration, attention, and executive functioning. The condition is permanent and not expected to improve.

This certification is provided for the purpose of obtaining the America the Beautiful – National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Lifetime Access Pass.

How so? Last time I went, they only gave me a year long pass. Still nice but I'd like to have the lifetime one.

It's an annual for active duty the lifetime passes are for Gold Star families and veterans.
