Australian Dyslexia Foundation

Australian Dyslexia Foundation The Australian Dyslexia Foundation aims to provide direct funding for people who cannot afford to pay for the assistive therapies that they need.

There is no existing dedicated public funding for people with dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia. Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics show that an alarming 10% of Australian adults are unable to:
• Enter personal information into a document
• Determine the meaning of sentences
• Locate key information within a paragraph

5% of Australian children will not gain adequate lit

eracy and numeracy skills without targeted one-on-one therapy, even when best practice methods are employed within the classroom. Medicare, schools and the NDIS do not provide adequate assistance

Failure to remediate literacy and numeracy disabilities during childhood has long-term impacts on an individual’s psychological and financial welfare, as well as on the economic and emotional health of the community at large.
