Dyslexia Does Not Discriminate: Jason Massiette

OUR INITIATIVES
Celebrate Dyslexia’s medical
initiative is to serve individuals and
families impacted by dyslexia
through improving screening,
diagnosis, intervention, education,
support and innovation such that
dyslexia will be celebrated as a gift.
Celebrate Dyslexia is working to remove barriers to access of information, education, and intervention for students with dyslexia and their families. Strategies include experiential Dyslexia 101 training seminars, Celebrate Dyslexia Learning Center to build the capacity of dyslexia therapists, and the launch of a Generation 28 open-enrollment charter school, Celebrate Dyslexia Schools.
A portfolio of high-profile events will bring the community together highlighting the strengths of dyslexia and celebrating those who are impacted by it.
This is a movement that is imperative for the future generation and it should start here in San Antonio. An incubator of ideas for the country, San Antonio can be the first to change the narrative of dyslexia and remove the conventional obstacles for these promising young minds. As a result, this movement will not only impact the next generation, it may provide a corrective and healing experience for adults who were never identified and endured a painful and confusing academic journey. We hope you will join Celebrate Dyslexia in our mission today.
