On a recent Price of Business show, Host Kevin Price interviewed Faye LaCasse, Senior Director of Omni Channel Marketing at Learning Ally.
Learning Ally, formerly Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic, is a female-founded nonprofit with one clear mission: to empower learners with reading differences, including dyslexia by providing innovative solutions and fostering meaningful partnerships.
The organization began more than 77 years ago when founder, Ann T. MacDonald mobilized a group of volunteers to help blind World War II veterans access a college education through the GI Bill of Rights. With her guidance, Recording for the Blind was launched, producing recordings of essential textbooks and educational materials for veterans and many others who couldn’t access the printed word. In those early days, just as now, the organization was powered by volunteers and donors.
Over the years, the need for an alternative way to access printed text has expanded beyond the blind and visually impaired to include individuals with learning differences, such as dyslexia. According to the latest research, as many as 1 in 5 students has dyslexia, with as many as 80% of them living undiagnosed without the support they need.
Renamed Learning Ally in 2011, the organization now serves the needs of families, educators, and students in 24,000 schools in the U.S. Through the generosity of thousands of donors, corporations, and volunteers, Learning Ally helps individuals with learning differences, including dyslexia, realize their potential through its award-winning Audiobook Solution as well as professional development workshops for educators.
