Did you know that dyslexia affects more than reading?
People with dyslexia often struggle with remembering directions, putting their thoughts into words, and spatial awareness. They may also struggle to distinguish between "left" and "right," and may need to come up with tricks to help them when they need it.
Dyslexia also doesn't mean seeing letters and words backwards. People with dyslexia are able to recognize letters and words. What they struggle with is recognizing and working with the sounds in the words themselves. Dyslexia is a complex disability that is not easily isolated to a particular region of the brain.
It's not laziness or stupidity. It's a real disability with real neurological challenges.
More practice reading does not make it go away. In fact, it can have a negative effect on reading, since dyslexic children may develop increased negative associations with reading. Also, processing may become more difficult as the person with dyslexia becomes more stressed.
This national dyslexia month, know that around 10% of children are affected, and it often goes undiagnosed. If you believe your child may have dyslexia, find a professional specializing in it so that you can get an accurate diagnosis. Not everyone who struggles to read is dyslexic, so it's important to understand your child's needs.

Last month, NLS partnered with the Braille Institute to host an exclusive screening of “Brailled It,” a groundbreaking documentary that follows three blind and low-vision students competing in the Braille Challenge, an international academic competition. Afterward, NLS Director Jason Broughton discussed "Brailled It' with Dr. Maria “Conchita” Hernandez Legorreta, the film's impact producer; David Grabias, who led the production team; and Christopher Morgan, one of the Braille Challenge competitors. A recording of the event’s opening remarks and the panel discussion is available on the Library of Congress' website for everyone to enjoy, at: www.loc.gov/item/video-12816?loclr=fbnls.

This week, ACB’s advocacy team was back on Capitol Hill advancing one of our top legislative priorities: the Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act.

ACB Director of Advocacy and Governmental Affairs Claire Stanley, along with Advocacy Fellows Amanda Wickstrom and Karolina Wrobel, met with staff from the offices of Reps. Rep. Mike Bost, Congressman Steve Cohen, Congressman Steny Hoyer, and Rep. Brian Babin to build support for this critical legislation.

Far too many medical devices with digital interfaces remain inaccessible to people who are blind or have low vision, creating unnecessary barriers to managing health independently. The Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act would establish accessibility standards for certain medical devices, helping ensure that these devices are designed with accessibility in mind.

ACB has been a leading voice in advocating for this legislation, and we need your help to keep the momentum going. Take action today by contacting your members of Congress through our Speak4 platform: https://speak4.app/lp/hn012s8s?ts=1759237995.
