Checklist for Learning Differences
LEAF (Learning Education & Assistance For Families) began as an idea by SMS parents with similar experiences and challenges. This idea was cultivated and soon developed into an organization that will help our community grow together in understanding learning differences among children.
Together we can support one another by providing ideas, information, resources and a place to connect with other families on a similar journey.
Please join us for an upcoming Speaker Series!
