Kids with Learning Disabilities to Share Personal Stories

Categories: In the News

Kids with learning disabilities will be sharing their personal stories, how they overcame it, and teach kids and their YES Closerparents how to advocate for what they need in school during the “YES! Top Secrets” program from 9:30 a.m. to noon Feb. 6 at The Wildlife Experience. The YES! (Youth Examples of Self Advocacy) program is in full swing, and has grown from a small group of students in Denver to a wide scale in-person and online program that pairs younger students with learning deficiencies like dyslexia, with an older student who is trained to help guide them, recognize their strengths and become strong self-advocates.
