Dyslexia is a condition in which some people – people who are otherwise normal and healthy – have difficulty associating letters or combinations of letters with the sounds that those letters or combinations of letters should make when reading them. Dyslexia is NOT a disease. It is a very common, often misunderstood condition that can be effectively treated. Not treating Dyslexia can lead to the affected persons having low self-esteem, poor academic performance, and the denial of opportunities for advancement in society.

The key is early detection. The mission is to ensure that dyslexics are identified and know what they have. The goal is to make dyslexics feel better about themselves and believe in themselves. The key is letting children and adults with dyslexia know that just because they cannot read they can be as smart or smarter than their peers. Dyslexic children need to know there is nothing wrong with them and that they should not feel ashamed because, with help, they will be able to read and to enjoy life just like people who do not have dyslexia.

Some of the world’s most successful, most creative, and sexiest people have dyslexia. From Albert Einstein, to Steven Spielberg, to Sir Richard Branson, to Walt Disney, to actors Harrison Ford, Orlando Bloom, and Keira Knightly, to Superstar Cher – they are all dyslexics.

It’s no longer a dis. Dyslexia Is Sexy.™
