Dyslexia affects between 15 and 20 percent of Americans, many of whom remain undiagnosed and receive little or no intervention services. For some individuals who have never been diagnosed, dyslexia is a hidden disability which may result in underemployment, difficulty navigating academic environments, difficulty on the job, and reduced self-confidence. Even those who have been diagnosed are likely to struggle with reading or writing in some aspects of their lives. Dyslexia is a specific reading disorder and does not reflect low intelligence. There are many bright and creative individuals with dyslexia who never learn to read, write, and/or spell at a level consistent with their intellectual ability.
Are you an adult who struggles with reading, spelling, and/or writing? The Georgia Branch of the International Dyslexia Association invites you to come learn about resources that are available to you.
After the speakers provide information about resources, we will open up the floor for Q & A. As time permits, attendees will be invited to share their own stories and resources they have discovered.
Speakers/Panelists:
Dr. Leslie A. Stuart, Psychologist and Member of the IDA-GA Board of Directors
Dr. Lynn Mahovsky, Director of Disability Services at the Regents Center at Georgia State University
Ms. Bea Clark-Foster, MRC, CRC, Rehabilitation Employment Specialist, Georgia Department of Labor, Vocational Rehabilitation Program
Mr. Darlo Koldenhoven, Disability Program Manager, Office of Diversity Management and Equal Employment Opportunity at Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
Ms. Foster Soules, Director of the Adult Dyslexia Program at the Schenck School and Fellow of the Academy of Orton-Gillingham Practitioners and Educators
Ms. Jennifer Topple, Director of Assistive Technology , The Howard School
Ms. Bridgette Long, Program Coordinator, The Center for Financial Independence & Innovation, Inc. – a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities and their family members advance their financial independence and security.
Hosted By
International Dyslexia Association - GA Branch
The Georgia Branch of The International Dyslexia Association is a non-profit, scientific and educational organization which was formed to increase public awareness of dyslexia. We are a resource and support system for parents, individuals with dyslexia, and educators.
Many of our members are actively involved in the diagnosis and remediation of dyslexia. Our members are educators, psychologists, physicians, individuals with dyslexia, and parents who have dealt with learning disability issues within local public and private schools.
With its approximate 300 members, the Georgia Branch provides an information and referral hotline, community outreach activities, yearly conferences, teacher training workshops, and e-newsletters. The Branch encourages teachers to train in multisensory language instruction.
Membership in the local branch is included in the cost of IDA membership. If you are one of the many people affected by dyslexia or if you have family members or students with dyslexia, we urge you to join the IDA and become an active participant.
