Learning Disabilities Association of St. Louis

"St. Louis Learning Disabilities Association, Inc. (St. Louis LDA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the understanding and acceptance of learning disabilities.  Targeted solutions are developed for children, parents, and professionals in order to help students maximize their potential in the classroom and in life. Children need hope, understanding and compassion to learn and reach their full potential. St. Louis Learning Disabilities Association helps children by giving them the education and support necessary to be successful. Not every child learns the same way.  Many children struggle in the classroom and beyond because of a learning disability or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).  

Left untreated, 37.8% of children with learning disabilities often sustain emotional and psychological problems, are far more likely to fall victim to substance abuse, and are more apt to become involved with the juvenile justice system. However, with the correct intervention, these children can thrive in the classroom and lead productive and successful lives.

St. Louis Learning Disabilities Association helps students with LD, ADHD, autism, and all atypical learning and behavior styles.  We offer a wide range of programs and services to achieve targeted solutions for each child as well as his or her family and/or educator. These include:

ACT & SAT Prep
