LD Resources Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in 2001 (under IRS section 501(c))  that helps find solutions to those who are affected by specific learning disability, Dyslexia and ADHD. We provide resources to these adults, teenagers and children, as well as their parents and educators, with a special focus on the needs of low-income households.

Learning disability, dyslexia and ADHD effects 1 out of 5 people. They experience lifelong challenges causing delays in developing communication or learning skills. A learning disability is unrelated to intelligence and affects children, students and adults.

By advocating for these individuals and promoting awareness about the challenges they face through our blog (which is posted on social media such as Facebook and Twitter), we strive to help them succeed.  There is no-cost or required membership fee for the services and resources we provide.
