Recommended Dyslexia Websites
www.BrightSolutions.us
The Bright Solutions site has information, resources, and fantastic videos about dyslexia. You can also request lists of certified Barton tutors near you.
You can also sign up for a monthly newsletter (I highly recommend it!) with dyslexia news, student stories, advice for families, and helpful reviews of new technology.
www.BartonReading.com
Here you can learn about The Barton Reading and Spelling System and even watch a demo lesson. There is research, plans for starting a volunteer program, tips and tons of support for tutors using the Barton System, testimonials, and more!

On the page of the state chapter of Decoding Dyslexia, you can learn about dyslexia legislation in your state, see resources for people with dyslexia, and learn how you can help.
