1 in 5 children have dyslexia,
yet only 30% are identified in school.
At Literacy Utah, our goal is to help every child achieve reading success, especially those facing challenges like dyslexia, dysgraphia, and ADHD. We use a proven, research-based approach that’s tailored to each child’s unique needs, making learning engaging and effective.
Our structured literacy program, grounded in Orton-Gillingham principles, is designed to build strong reading and language skills while celebrating each child’s individual strengths. We work closely with families to offer comprehensive support and ensure that every student feels confident and capable.
We’re dedicated to partnering with you to help your child thrive in reading and beyond. Let’s work together to make a difference!
