4th Annual Dyslexia Dash
Countdown to the DASH
Our Mission
Empowering teachers, parents, and students for a brighter future!
The International Dyslexia Association Los Angeles Branch (IDALA) is a volunteer non-profit organization that serves Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara and Kern Counties. Our mission is to raise awareness and understanding of dyslexia, to promote effective intervention practices, and to support individuals with dyslexia, their families, and professionals in the field. Our educational workshops and community events are open to all.
Our Impact
Raising funds for teacher training, scholarships and outreach initiatives! We serve as a resource and support system for individuals with dyslexia, as well as the families, educators, and communities that support them.
The Facts
It's a myth that dyslexia is rare. Dyslexia occurs on a spectrum, and in the United States, NIH research has shown that dyslexia affects 20% of people. That is 1 in every 5 people!
Our signature event
1 in 5K Dyslexia Dash
is held annually during Dyslexia Awareness Month.
100% of donations are awarded for teacher training, scholarships, and outreach initiatives!
