About us
The Dyslexia Alliance for Black Children (DABC) was created to increase awareness of dyslexia and related learning disabilities, promote early identification, and increase access to research-based intervention for Black children. Black children are disproportionately impacted by the negative effects of dyslexia resulting in academic failure, low self-esteem, and decreased quality of life participation. We are parents, educators, and allies driven by the urgent call to address the double disparity of dyslexia and race.
