Donald D "Pete" Miller Center The Children's Dyslexia Centers, Inc. Children are eligible regardless of economic status, race, or religion. Our center does not diagnose dyslexia.

Are in 15 states, providing tutoring at no charge to children from kindergarten through high school who have been diagnosed as dyslexic. Dyslexia is estimated to affect millions of school-age children in the United States. These children typically have average or above average intelligence but experience difficulty with written language, particularly with reading and spelling. The children who receive tutoring at our center have already been diagnosed with dyslexia through educational and psychological evaluations. Many have been tested in their schools and
are receiving special education services. Often the diagnosis in public schools is
labeled as a learning or reading disability. When applications are received at our
center, these evaluations are reviewed. When it is determined that our program will benefit the child, the child is accepted into the program and put on the wait list.

Dyslexia is the most common learning disability. Individuals with this medical condition have difficulty in the areas of language processing

1 in 5 people suffer from dyslexia.

About 70 to 85% of children who are placed in special education for learning disabilities are dyslexic.

Dyslexia does not reflect an overall defect in language, but a localized weakness within the phonologic module of the brain (where sounds of language are put together to form words or break words down into sounds).

People with dyslexia are usually more creative and have a higher level of intelligence.

Those with dyslexia use only the right side of the brain to process language, while non-dyslexics use three areas on the left side of the brain to process language.

Children have a 50% chance of having dyslexia if one parent has it. And a 100% chance if both parents have it.

Dyslexia ranges from mild to severe. Around 40% of people with dyslexia also have ADHD. And those with dyslexia use about 5 times more energy to complete mental tasks.

Dyslexia is not a disease so there is no cure. It’s a learning disability that includes difficulty in the use/processing of linguistic and symbolic codes, alphabetic letters representing speech sounds or number and quantities.

Dyslexics do not “see” words backwards. The “b-d” letter reversal for example is mainly caused by deficits in interpreting left and right.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates that 15% of the population has dyslexia.
