Specific Learning Disability / Dyslexia
Specific learning disorders (often referred to as a learning disorder or learning disability, see note on terminology) are neurodevelopmental disorders that are typically diagnosed in early school-aged children, although may not be recognized until adulthood. They are characterized by a persistent impairment in at least one of three major areas: reading, written expression, and/or math.
An estimated five to 15% of school-age children struggle with a learning disability.1 An estimated 80% of those with learning disorders have an impairment in reading in particular (commonly referred to as dyslexia).
