The LD Resources Foundation award program was created to help students diagnosed with Dyslexia, ADHD and other learning disabilities.
The LDRFA Awards Committee will determine the award to be granted, a Chromebook Laptop or a Tablet compatible with AT applications.
Our hope is that these awards will provide the necessary foundation by which these students can build a strong academic future.
LD Resources Foundation invites Offices of Disabilities in Higher Education and vocational schools to participate in identifying and assisting eligible students with LD in applying for the Award. Such collaboration with LD Resources Foundation can result in the provision of technology devices to students with learning difficulties for whom receiving a college education or mastering a specific profession would otherwise be an insurmountable challenge. Please email us at Info@ldrfa.org or use our contact form with any inquiries.
