YCDC Initiatives

The Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity seeks to expand awareness and support for dyslexic children and adults through a range of initiatives. Through advocacy and outreach to families, educators and policymakers our Multicultural Dyslexia Awareness Initiative has raised awareness about dyslexia in communities of color, where far too many people remain undiagnosed and untreated.

Similarly, our library initiative aims to improve understanding of dyslexia among public librarians, who are often among the first to recognize when a child is uninterested in reading.
