Helping Families Support School Success

Research shows that parents’ involvement with their child’s learning is key to a child’s academic success. The Parents as Partners program empowers parents to become more involved and better equipped to support their children’s learning.

Building Successful Readers

“The single most significant factor influencing a child’s early educational success is an introduction to books and being read to at home prior to beginning school.” —National Commission on Reading

The Early Literacy program at LDA Minnesota is based on early childhood research. The program prepares parents to support their child’s early reading skill development through workshops, practical hands-on strategies, and literacy materials. It provides childcare professionals with training and materials to encourage parents’ efforts at home and to incorporate early literacy strategies throughout their program. Raising A Reader is our take-home book bag program to support early literacy.

LDA Minnesota's Public Education and Outreach is provided through its communication materials, information and referral services, educational conferences, and seminars. LDA Minnesota's goal is to provide quality information and training to parents, teachers, professionals, and the general public on learning disabilities (LD) and other learning difficulties.
