Form 990, Part III, Line 4A, Program service accomplishments: By a "community service" visit to local schools to bring supplies and interact with teacher and students. The organization also hosts 2 teacher and parent conferences throughout the year to present cutting edge research with applications of evidence-based practices in reading assessment, instruction and intervention and the neurobiological and genetic research underlying these, at high-profile university venues on the east and west coasts of the US. Several brief symposia workshops comprised of senior researchers in various disciplines, to address a specific neglected topic and lay the groundwork for a think-tank symposium or a new project. Brief symposia/workshops comprised of senior researchers in various disciplines, to address a specific neglected topic and lay the groundwork for a think-tank symposium or a new project. The organization also works to promote awareness of dyslexia, the impact of reading failure on life, health, employment and well-being, and the importance of evidence-based practice in dyslexia diagnosis, prevention, and remediation. They have developed events and awards, including their prestigious Rodin and Hans Christian Andersen Awards to noteworthy dyslexics (in entertainment and commerce, respectively), and the Einstein award to non-dyslexics who have made significant contributions to increasing our understanding of dyslexia.
