The Dyslexia Alliance for Black Children

The Dyslexia Alliance for Black Children (DABC) was created to increase awareness of dyslexia and related learning disabilities, promote early identification, and increase access to research-based intervention for Black children. Black children are disproportionately impacted by the negative effects of dyslexia resulting in academic failure, low self-esteem, and decreased quality of life participation. We are parents, educators, and allies driven by the urgent call to address the double disparity of dyslexia and race.
