About

IDEAS - Impacting Dyslexia Education Awareness and Support

was created by two moms in Plano, Texas who felt isolated and were struggling to find help for their dyslexic kids. When they met they realized how much help they were to each other, sharing information and advice. They created IDEAS to try and reach others. Dyslexic students have unique needs and it can be a confusing and stressful road to travel alone. They hope that by sharing ideas and information, they might be able to help alleviate the isolation and confusion for other parents and create a positive environment for progress and change.

IDEAS holds monthly speakers and also informal coffee talks during the school year.

IDEAS strives to connect our parents, caretakers and teachers with resources and information.

IDEAS creates a community spirit where people feel empowered and connected.

IDEAS promotes awareness and educates the community at large.

Together we hope to promote effective changes that will have a positive impact on all students with dyslexia.
