The National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) works to ensure that the nation's 15 million children, adolescents, and adults with learning disabilities (LD) have every opportunity to succeed in school, work and life. NCLD carries out its mission by (1) providing essential information to parents, professionals, and individuals with LD; (2) promoting research and programs to foster effective learning; and (3) advocating for policies to protect and strengthen educational rights and opportunities. NCLD created Parent Center, a comprehensive resource section for parents of a child with LD or for parents who suspect their child may have a learning disability. The goal of the Parent Center is to empower parents with the information and tools they need to become informed and effective advocates for their children, both at home and at school.
The Center provides online guide to information about LD, early literacy and learning resources, support for adolescents and adults with LD, public policy and advocacy tools. The Center also publishes LD News, a free e-publication sent out monthly that addresses issues related to learning disabilities for parents, care-givers, educators, advocates and individuals with LD.
