Nearly 1 in 5 people can’t read well because of dyslexia.

Dyslexia means “difficulty with words.” People with dyslexia have trouble learning to read, write, and spell competently, even though they may be very intelligent and creative.

People with dyslexia have brains that are organized differently from most people’s brains.

Although people with dyslexia struggle with schoolwork, they may excel in science, sports, music, and art.

If you suspect dyslexia, and want to know for sure, a dyslexia screening can provide the answer. Specialized tests can establish whether a person’s reading difficulty is due to dyslexia.

Dyslexia can be reliably diagnosed at any age, even in children as young as six.
