Exploring Dyslexia and Neurodiversity with the Reading Center
In this episode of Friday Night Sound Bytes Dr. Loucresie Rupert invites Jamie Schwaba and Faye Van Vilet, from the Reading Center in Rochester, Minnesota, to speak on dyslexia and neurodiversity. Schwaba, the Director of Development, and Van Fleet, the Director of Programming, tirelessly work in their dyslexia institute focusing on helping children and adults learn to read using the Orton Gillingham approach. The Reading Center also provides scholarships, tutors, and adult training sessions, alongside outreach activities to ensure a diverse range of individuals can access their services.
