Spreading Awareness for Dyslexia
Our Mission: To provide reading therapy and learning strategies to those who have suffered, and are suffering with learning difficulties, and to educate families, caretakers, educators and clinicians in our community about dyslexia.
The Literacy Center of Hampton Roads spreads awareness for dyslexia. We implement research-based Orton-Gillingham methods, along with multisensory, structured, language-based learning strategies that work! We provide a caring, professional and fun learning environment for students of all ages. Students enjoy learning, and many ask: "Why haven't I learned this before?". Many students who struggled with reading for years, finally find success in reading, spelling and writing using this method, because it is not just learning phonics, but total word structure. By attending our workshops, educators in both the public and private sector, are learning to recognize the early warning signs of dyslexia, so that they may better identify a struggling student, and how to help them.

- Many students are not identified because of their average to above-average cognitive abilities. These individuals learn coping strategies, however, struggle unnecessarily.
