Supporting Our Local Library, Raising Dyslexia Awareness
The Written Word is thrilled to announce that we are fully committed to supporting our local library, the Wheaton Public Library, during October’s Dyslexia Awareness Month
All proceeds from the sale of the posters will go directly to the library. We donate books to the library each October to support a Dyslexia Awareness book display that showcases resources for children, parents, and teachers.
We look forward to making a positive impact and hope you’ll join us in raising awareness and supporting individuals with dyslexia.
