Vision Statement: To increase awareness of dyslexia and promote services that address the importance of diagnosis and remediation for those who are not meeting their reading potential...in a way that promotes unity, support and cooperation among those who work with these individuals...so that all communities in Iowa benefit from the skills and talents of its citizens.
