Services BCAA provides:
Community Engagement
Awareness Art Show
We provide community engagement opportunities for the public to learn more about dyslexia. Some of these presentations involve a simulation, using items from the facility that is hosting. For example, if we are at a restaurant we change the menu to make it difficult to read so people can experience the difficulties a person with dyslexia experiences. This provides a more authentic experience.
We also provide education through awareness art shows. We have had adult dyslexics submit artwork from all over the world and had local art shows.
