Welcome to the Region 9 Support Site for Dyslexia and Related Disorders

Region 9 is committed to promoting awareness and understanding of dyslexia and related disorders, as well as their impact on student learning and success. We offer comprehensive professional development sessions designed to equip educators with the knowledge and tools needed to support all learners.

Our training sessions focus on:

  • Understanding dyslexia and related disorders

  • Effective screening and identification practices

  • Supporting students through targeted instruction and classroom accommodations

  • Ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations

In addition to professional development, Region 9 provides individualized technical assistance to districts within the region. This includes guidance on dyslexia policies and support with implementation questions to help ensure students receive the services they need.
