Did you know that learning disabled people can be effective learners, get good educations, and be happy, successful members of their community? They can! It all depends on finding the learning solutions that work for that person.
The LDAA-EC is a not-for-profit organization that provides support for people with learning disabilities and their families in the Edmonton, Alberta region. We're a voluntary, non-profit organization of parents, professionals, and other interested people.
Our mission is to advance the education, employment, social development, legal rights, and general well-being of people with learning disabilities. We especially welcome families dealing with child LD, and adults who have decided not to let LD limit their lives or reduce their self-esteem.
What the LDAA-EC Provides to Members
The LDAA-EC provides its members with the tools to:
- understand the learning disability that they, or their loved one, is experiencing
- discover the appropriate interventions and learning strategies that will work
- know their rights within the education system, and know how to exercise those rights
- develop support relationships with others affected by LD
Whether you're the parent of a child with LD, or an adult with LD, the LDAA-EC can provide you with resources, support, and encouragement. Anyone can be a member. Come join us!
