In 1994, the nation’s first program to help children afflicted with dyslexia was launched by the Scottish Rite of the Northern Jurisdiction and Massachusetts General Hospital’s Language Disorders Unit.
We know that when parents understand dyslexia and feel supported, children flourish. Our goal is to make the learning journey a partnership built on trust, compassion, and shared progress.
For over two decades, the Scottish Rite Masons, Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, have been national leaders in the effort to help children and their families overcome the painful obstacles of dyslexia. With more than 40 Dyslexia Centers in 13 states, the Children’s Dyslexia Centers tackle the challenge of dyslexia head-on, both by providing free tutoring for children with dyslexia and by training a growing cadre of highly skilled and dedicated tutors.
Dyslexia is a specific language-based learning difference. Dyslexia makes it difficult for children to read words accurately and quickly. Dyslexia varies in severity and can persist even after classroom instruction. Dyslexia can lead to difficulty with written expression, reading comprehension, and academic achievement.
Dyslexia results from genetic, biological, and environmental factors that interact throughout a child’s life.
Without proper intervention, Dyslexia can lead to lifelong challenges without effective intervention.
That’s where the Children’s Dyslexia Centers can help.
The Children’s Dyslexia Centers equip children with the skills, strategies, and confidence they need to become successful learners. Our progress data show that most children make significant gains in literacy skills.

At age seven, Sydney’s parents knew she was struggling with reading. It wasn’t until the CDC stepped in that she could learn in a way that finally made sense.
Today, she reads with confidence because the right support changed everything.
