As we all know not only is dyslexia a hidden disability but the resources to help are also hidden. There is a huge gap between those that need help and those that provide it. Joining forces with a group of people with similar experiences and needs does provide strength in numbers. Support groups have a desire to establish support systems for dyslexic children and their parents; the necessity for these groups usually comes about when support is not available. The object of the group is to help make life for dyslexics meaningful and enjoyable by sharing resources, information and experiences for common good. Often just bringing the children together helps normalize their disadvantages, they can see that dyslexics really are cool and ok. >>
