Parent-to-Parent Group for Dylexia/ LBLD/ Reading delays
We’re a community of parents and guardians who come together to share our experiences, exchange resources, and build a supportive network for families navigating Dyslexia, reading delays, and Language-Based Learning Disabilities (LBLD). The group is organized by Newton parents Karen Gage, who has a son in 8th grade OOD, and Janet Jackson, who has a son in 4th grade at Countryside. Our goal is to offer a safe, informal space for adult discussion and mutual support. Your insights will help us better understand the successes and challenges families are facing and how we can collectively support one another in advocating for our children’s needs.
We invite any Newton parent or caregiver to join us. In addition to scheduled meetings, we are happy to coordinate impromptu discussions as needed.
Upcoming Meeting Dates:
· February 5 (in-person at 7pm)
· April 2 (virtual meeting)
Please email janetreillyjackson@gmail.com for joining information.
