Special Education: Free Resources and Professional Development

1 in 5 Americans struggle with learning and thinking differences, such as ADHD and dyslexia. They are misunderstood, undiagnosed, and dismissed, and their differences are viewed as a weakness.

A lack of awareness, stigma, and a culture of status quo leaves them on a journey that is stacked against them.

Understood is the only lifelong guide for those who learn and think differently. Once learning and thinking differences are embraced, confidence is built, community is created, jobs become careers, and life is more fulfilling.

That’s why we provide evidence-based, easy-to-use resources to help educators further develop their approaches to teaching every student.
