A Big ASDEC Thank you to all who donated during our Winter Fundraising Campaign! We are literally using your funds right now to assist students.
"Thank you to all of you! Jonathan finally can read! His progress is amazing and we know that he will need to keep working but we are pleased for everything he has achieved by all the help he has received from all ofyou but specifically from Dr. Chambers". (Parent of 12th-grade student who improved six grade levels since beginning Academic therapy in 2019).
Please help more students like Jonathan recover from academic failure.
Jonathan's mom asked for reading help since he was in nursery school. His teachers did not understand dyselxia, they placed him in English Language Learning even though he only spoke English. He could not read, write or spell and he grew anxious with each failure. His mom never gave up. By the time Jonathan reached 10th grade, his mom finally found ASDEC and Jonathan quickly experienced success and achievement in school. He has worked hard and is now in honors classes planning his bright future.
Your donation today to ASDEC will help us train educators to screen for dyslexia. With your support we can serve low-income students whose parents cannot afford private tutoring. If we have helped your family, if you know a student like Jonathan who needs our services--PLEASE PLEASE DONATE TODAY!
