"When our boys were diagnosed with dyslexia, we weren’t sure where to even begin. Thankfully, we were told by a dyslexia advocate and educational attorney about Reaching New Heights. We didn’t realize how much cursive instruction and OT work moved children with dyslexia forward. The OT and cursive work that our boys receive at Reaching New Heights is served with so much joy, fun, love and fidelity. We will be forever grateful for our new favorite Difference Maker!
