Become a Youth Associate
IDA-Dallas invites students aged 14-22 to join our Youth Associate program. This is a great opportunity for young people who have dyslexia or are passionate about supporting those who do.
Youth Associates gain leadership experience, networking opportunities, and the chance to make a real difference in the dyslexia community. They participate in select events, help with outreach, and provide valuable perspectives to our organization.
