OUR MISSION is to identify, remediate, and raise awareness of dyslexia and the impact it has on our community. Children with dyslexia often cannot get all the help they need in schools, and families cannot afford to pay for the kind of specialized help that their learning difference requires.  That is why we provide free testing and tutoring services to children and adults in need throughout Coastal Virginia.  

 
Through ongoing collaboration with schools, community centers, churches, hospitals, foundations, and local businesses, the Sinkinson Dyslexia Foundation will help address illiteracy with an inclusive campaign to raise awareness of dyslexia.

Dyslexia is an often very misunderstood learning disability that effects an individual's ability to learn how it read.  In some cases, it can be debilitating.  Dyslexia is neurobiological in nature and is a result of wiring differences in the brain.  Often, we see individuals with dyslexia are struggling from either visual or auditory processing deficits.  Dyslexia is hereditary and effects individuals with average to above average levels of intelligence.  


It is important for individuals with dyslexia to get the right kind of help they need.  Multi-sensory instruction, with a Structured Literacy program, like the one used by the Sinkinson trained tutors, provides the key for unlocking their full potential.  It' s never too late.
