HBO's Journey Into Dyslexia Movie Night

We co-sponsored a showing of this film in January but had so many of our families unable to attend and requesting a second showing, we decided to go ahead and show it again!

JOURNEY INTO DYSLEXIA presents profiles of dyslexic students and adults who share their experiences of struggling in school and then succeeding in life. It examines the complexities of this differently structured brain and debunks myths and misperceptions about dyslexia.
