Dyslexia Institutes of America

Mental health matters - and for many people with dyslexia, the impact goes far beyond the classroom.

In our report, ‘Set up for somebody else’: Young people with dyslexia in the education system, 70% of the children and young people surveyed said dyslexia had caused them to feel bad about themselves.

But the emotional impact doesn’t stop in childhood. Many adults with dyslexia continue to experience anxiety, low confidence, stress, and feeling misunderstood in education, work, and everyday life.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, led by Mental Health Foundation, the theme is Action. For us, action means creating environments where people with dyslexia can thrive without stigma or shame.

Every dyslexic mind is different. Support should reflect that.

When we recognise individual needs and strengths, we move from simply accommodating dyslexia to truly empowering people.

Those of you who know me may be a bit surprised by this post as I am asking for any consideration in helping Democratic Candidate Don Samuels’ campaign for Congress in Minnesota.

In Yirtza Hashem, he will be victorious in conquering the seat of vile squad member Ilhan Omar! My cousin in the twin cities is working within the Jewish Community there and they are starting to fundraise in major Jewish communities across the country! Not sure about you, but I am all onboard for Breaking Up the Squad and defeating antisemitism in Congress! If you can support his campaign or know someone that can I urge you to join me and help take down Omar, a female Haman as we near Purim.

Show your support with a contribution.

Happy Holidays! I hope all is well with you and your family!

I wanted to let you know about a greet program that helps you and any Ohio taxpayer and Dyslexia Institutes of America!!!. The SGO tax credit is for everyone who pays taxes to the State of Ohio. If you file Single you can contribute up to $750 or if you file Married Filing Jointly up to $1500. Line 13 on your Ohio tax form for last year (Ohio IT-1040) tells what your tax liability was. If you are a Single filer and that line is greater than $750 then likely for 2023 you can donate to Every Child Every Family the full $750. If line 13 is less, then you can likely donate up to that amount. If you file Married Filing Jointly and Line 13 is greater than $1500 then you can likely donate the full $1500 to Every Child Every Family. If line 13 is less, then you can likely donate up to that amount. If the donation is made and directed to Dyslexia Institutes of America then at the beginning of the next academic school year we can draw the donations and use it towards tuition Scholarships at DIA. This helps us help kids learn!!! I participated in the program last year and the process is seamless. Like the idea? Then make sure and ask your family and friends to participate as well! Questions? Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions! As always I cannot give you tax advice per se so consult your tax advisor for how this program will affect the filing of your Ohio taxes for 2023

The process is very simple…
* Make a credit card payment to our SGO.
* Dyslexia Institutes of America is using https://everychildeveryfamily.org/donate/
* Be certain to select DIA to donate to
* Contributions can be up to $750 for a single or $1500 if filing jointly
* Keep the emailed receipt for your tax records
* Once your taxes are calculated, you will either get a refund of the money you sent or the amount you owe for State taxes will be reduced by the amount you already paid
* Some notes:
* This is NOT a donation…this does NOT impact your taxable income
* This IS a chance for you to direct a portion of your state of Ohio tax dollars towards an organization of your choosing instead of it all going to a general state of Ohio pool
* This is a net zero cost to you. Every dollar you pay up front is refunded back to you
* The payment technically can be made up until April 15, but we are encouraging people to get it squared away before the end of year
* Always check with your accountant to ensure this makes sense for you to do. My accountant has told me this is a no brainer for me.
Thank for considering helping us out! Feel free to share to all your Ohio friends and family!!!
