Great read about the beginnings of LearningAlly!

It all started in a basement...

In 1948, a group of volunteers gathered in the basement of the New York City Public Library with a shared belief and a simple mission: that education is a right, not a privilege. Those were the words of our founder, Anne T. Macdonald, and they have guided Learning Ally ever since.

What began as a volunteer-driven effort to create recorded books for visually impaired WWII veterans has grown into a national leader in literacy and educational equity, serving hundreds of thousands of students with dyslexia and reading differences across the country.

The basement of a New York City library. A handful of people who believed access to education should never be limited by a person's ability to read. That is where this started, and that spirit is alive in every volunteer who dedicates their time and talent to us today.

Learning to Read: “The Simple View of Reading” – National Center on Improving Literacy Gain an understanding of The Simple View of Reading, and two areas that are key to learning to read: accuracy and comprehension.

Get the kids outside y’all!

Does it ever feel like your child settles a little after time outside? You might be onto something. Research shows that even 20 minutes in green spaces—like parks or tree-lined areas—can help improve attention and reduce ADHD symptoms.

Research is suggesting that time in nature can help ease “attentional fatigue”—that worn-out feeling that makes it hard to focus. Sometimes, support looks like stepping outside.
