WELCOME

It has been 74 years since the first meeting of the Orton Society, or as we know it today, the International Dyslexia Association (IDA). The founding members started along a path that led to today’s greater understanding of dyslexia and the effectiveness of structured literacy instruction for all students. With your help, we will continue to widen and pave that path until everyone can read. One essential element of this work over the years has been IDA’s annual conference. This year we will celebrate the 74th anniversary of IDA’s Annual Reading, Literacy & Learning Conference in Columbus, OH. We hope you will join us in this long-standing tradition of learning from top-tier experts, connecting with your peers, and sharing stories of personal success.

Whether you are a researcher; teacher; administrator; evaluator; service provider; parent, student, or adult with dyslexia, we are confident the conference will be an enriching experience for you. DyslexiaCon2023 will honor IDA’s distinctive past, its rich variety of topics and the caliber of presenters will keep our focus firmly on the future!

Thank you for all that you do. See you in Columbus, Ohio!
