Mission

 

Decoding Dyslexia CA is a grassroots movement driven by California families, educators, and professionals dedicated to improving literacy outcomes for struggling readers, especially those with dyslexia. We work to empower families, advocate for equitable access to evidence-based literacy instruction, and raise dyslexia awareness. 

DDCA believes access to evidence-based literacy instruction is a civil right. Children of color, English learners, and children who are socioeconomically disadvantaged face significant barriers to literacy achievement in California public schools. DDCA strives to reverse these profound inequities by advocating for policies and legislation to secure this civil right.
