Driving for Dyslexia was founded to help raise awareness and money to help children with Dyslexia learn to read and realize their true potential.
1 in 5 people has Dyslexia, and Dyslexia is the most common learning disability, yet most schools do not teach reading in the way children with Dyslexia learn to read. At Driving for Dyslexia, we believe that ALL children should have the ability to learn to read, not only the ones whose parents can pay for proper instruction outside of school. Through no fault of their own, most teachers are not trained in the proper method of teaching dyslexic children to read. We believe that we will reach the greatest number of children by funding training for teachers and tutors in a direct, explicit, multi-sensory, structured, sequential, diagnostic, prescriptive approach to literacy education, who will then be able to help countless children every day in their professional lives. We believe that all children with Dyslexia can learn to read, with early identification and proper intervention, and it is our mission for all people with Dyslexia to believe, as Elliot does, "Dyslexia doesn't stop me."
Come see us at Whiteland Raceway Park on 9/26/20 for the Driving for Dyslexia GP!
