Sharon's Red Letter
I wrote this poem in response to seeing my daughter feel like she was invisible on so many levels.
About Us
Without appropriate screening and assessment most people with dyslexia spend their life thinking there is something wrong with them, when in fact they simply have a learning difference, a difference that also brings with it many creative abilities and skills. With the right intervention and support children and adults with dyslexia can go on to achieve anything they desire.
The lack of understanding of dyslexia in Australia is a national shame. The aim of this parent driven page is to be a voice for the families by creating Dyslexia Awareness, Empowerment and Change.
Please look at our current campaigns below and support us to raise awareness.
