Learning Disabilities are Real and according to National Institutes of Health (NIH), one in seven Americans has one. People with learning disabilities are just as intelligent as other people but have difficulty learning
because their minds process words and information differently. A learning disability cannot be cured or fixed; but with the right support and intervention, children with learning diabilities can succeed in school and life. Mississippi Association for Children with Learning Disabilities was founded in 1969 by a small group of concerned parents and professionals. The name was recently changed
to Learning Disabilities Association of Mississippi. LDA of MS is a state affiliate of the LDA of America, a national volunteer organization of parents and professionals. It is devoted to defining and finding solutions for the
broad spectrum of learning problems. |
