Supporting Our Mission
How the ACF gives back:
Training Scholarships
Children and adults with dyslexia and other written language disorders must have effective reading and writing instruction. The training scholarship is available to anyone pursuingCALP or CALT certification and the instructor scholarship is available to anyone pursuing ICALP or QI certification.
Supporting Families
Too many teachers are not trained in the science of reading resulting in families to seek private instruction. This scholarship provides funds for families to obtain instruction by a Certified ALTA member.
