Our Story
Over Thirty Years Ago...
In 1994, the Scottish Rite Freemasons of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction partnered with Massachusetts General Hospital’s Language Disorders Unit to launch a major endeavor to help ease the life-long challenges faced by children with dyslexia. Until this program was launched, no other national charity had adopted this critical need as a major concern.
To help children
with dyslexia learn to read and to reach their full potential.
To help families
end the frustration, guilt and disruption caused by dyslexia.
To help communities
build support systems that help children succeed in and out of school.
Today, the program is nationally recognized for its efforts to help children and their families overcome the obstacles of dyslexia. Our more than 40 Dyslexia Centers in 13 states provide intervention at reduced or no charge to children from early elementary through high school who have a profile suggesting dyslexia. Children are eligible regardless of economic status. The positive impact of early intervention on the lives of these children and their families is enormous and inspires our commitment to this program.
