Did you hear! Major Win for Michigan Students! 🎉 Yesterday, the Michigan Partnership for Equity and Opportunity (MPEO) statewide coalition celebrated a monumental victory more than 6 years in the making. The Michigan legislature showed overwhelming bipartisan support for new legislation designed to tackle one of the most common barriers to learning: dyslexia. Dyslexia is a significant obstacle to reading proficiency, yet there has been no consistent system in Michigan to identify or support students with dyslexia—until now. Our team, in collaboration with dedicated state policymakers & disability advocates, has tirelessly pushed for legislation to change that. Thanks to this historic bipartisan effort, students across Michigan could have better access to the resources and support they need to succeed in reading and beyond.
