About the NSGCD The NSGCD explores, develops and disseminates to professional organizers and related professionals organizing methods, techniques, approaches and solutions that will benefit chronically disorganized people. Chronic disorganization is having a past history of disorganization in which self-help efforts to change have failed, disorganization undermines the current quality of life and the expectation of future disorganization exists. NSGCD’s organizing approaches and techniques benefit all clients, chronically disorganized or not. National Study Group on Chronic Disorganization www.nsgcd.org Voice: End
