FREE Community Event

Being literate is crucial in today's world. Leading experts estimate that 95% of all learners can be taught how to read using the structured literacy methods that specialized schools use for students with dyslexia. However, the current system of reading instruction used by the majority of schools results in only 1/3 of all students learning to read, yet curriculum and instruction in the US continues to ignore the evidence.

Jemicy's Outreach Program is committed to affecting change beyond the confines of our campus, that is why we are reaching out to the broader community in hopes that you will join us for this important opportunity to help close the literacy gap. 

Director Harvey Hubbell V will share his story as a dyslexic learner along with his most recent documentary, “Hopeville: How to Win the Reading Wars,” that showcases three first-grade classrooms that are doing it right. We learn how we must all work in our lanes to save our nation's illiterate youth and close the gap on reading instruction across the country once and for all.  View official trailer here >

The film will be followed by a panel discussion and Q & A session moderated by Harvey Hubbell V as we – educators, parents, clinicians - explore how, in our unique roles, can work together to prevent reading failure.
