To help launch a series of gatherings on the subject UC Merced is partnering with the DDCA. They will discuss tools for identification and interventions.

Symptoms can be mild or severe, but research shows that support systems and interventions make a difference – reducing the number of dyslexic students who might drop out of high school, suffer from anxiety and depression, become incarcerated or have challenges getting and keeping a job.

Dyslexia is a neurobiological condition that can make reading and word recognition difficult because some people’s brains are wired differently. People with dyslexia have trouble with phonological processing. A lot of dyslexic students and adults have never been identified or treated.
