Brett Tingley
A Strategic Roadmap for Dyslexia Parent Groups
The Dyslexia Connection of Evanston hosts Brett Tingley, who will discuss how Illinois educational laws compare with other states and how parent groups can band together to advocate for improved educational practices. Brett’s organization created a 50 page document called the “Roadmap” on best practices when starting a parent group. Here’s a link to the Roadmap that her group created after successfully lobbying for much needed changes to Ohio educational laws: https://ourdyslexicchildren.com/a-strategic-roadmap
