The Science is conclusive. Federal law is in place. And yet little changes until parents band together and demand their children with dyslexia be served!

Our Dyslexic Children began principal photography in 2018. The community-funded, non-profit documentary film runs 44 minutes.

In 2010, a group of parents in a suburban school district near Columbus, Ohio discovered their children had something in common - they could not read. They were languishing in a reading intervention program and their dyslexia was not being identified or remediated as is required by federal law under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The group banded together to form the grassroots organization, Upper Arlington Kids Identified with Dyslexia (UA-KID). Together they filed a systemic, group complaint with the Ohio Department of Education and the district was found in violation on all three allegations. Then, they formed a partnership with the district and now work shoulder to shoulder to deliver the nationally recognized early literacy program they built together.

This film was made to offer a roadmap for parents to advocate on behalf of all children.

Schools often organize their work into tiers - Universal Tier 1 supports for all students, Targeted Tier 2 supports for subsets of students needing some additional support, and Intensive Tier 3 supports for individual students needing the most guidance. Schools can also think about their work with students' families in these tiers.
