About the International Dyslexia Association


IDA is 70 Years Old!

In celebration of its 70th anniversary, the International Dyslexia Association (IDA) has pledged to improve the lives of at least 700,000 families, students, and professionals touched by dyslexia with its new 777 Impact Campaign. As many as 15–20% of the U.S. population have symptoms of dyslexia or are dyslexic. “That’s over 40 million people who struggle with a basic privilege that most of us enjoy every day without even thinking about it,” says IDA’s new CEO Sonja Banks. “We must do better. The future and untapped potential of so many is at stake.”It’s IDA’s 70th Anniversary! Donate to the Cause Today!

Mission Statement

The International Dyslexia Association (IDA) is an international organization that concerns itself with the complex issues of dyslexia. The IDA membership consists of a variety of professionals in partnership with dyslexics and their families and all others interested in The Association’s mission.

We believe that all individuals have the right to achieve their potential, that individual learning abilities can be strengthened and that social, educational and cultural barriers to language acquisition and use must be removed.

The IDA actively promotes effective teaching approaches and related clinical educational intervention strategies for dyslexics. We support and encourage interdisciplinary research. We facilitate the exploration of the causes and early identification of dyslexia and are committed to the responsible and wide dissemination of research based knowledge.
