"The READ Act or Research Excellence and Advancements for Dyslexia Act requires the National Science Foundation to fund research into “the early identification of children and students with dyslexia, professional development for teachers and administrators of students with dyslexia, curricula and educational tools needed for children with dyslexia, and implementation and scaling of successful models of dyslexia intervention.”
This act was signed by President Obama just last week -on February 18th. Congratulations to the researchers who will be gaining federal funding to help positively affect individuals diagnosed with this disability!
