Dyslexia 101 Series: Part 1

Come join us in this three part film and discussion series.

Part 1: Parents: Trust Your Instincts

Parents and other family members spend the most one-to-one time with their children. Our goal of this presentation is to help parents recognize the signs of dyslexia so that they may seek appropriate help for their children.

The Dyslexia 101 Series is brought to you in collaboration with the Hawai’I Branch of the International Dyslexia Association.
