SPELD Parent Support Group

The primary goal of the SPELD Qld Parent Support Group is to bring parents together in a safe & supportive environment to share knowledge in a way that empowers parents to be the best advocate they can be for their child.

The group seeks to share stories and experiences in a way that respects all stakeholders and seeks positive ways forward to help parents as they navigate their child’s schooling.  This in turn has a positive influence over the experiences of our children with dyslexia.

This group provides a safe place for parents to:

• share their stories and to seek advice and help from other parents
• seek information about the services that SPELD can provide to their family and to their school
• seek advice about supports and services available within and outside of schools
• be surrounded by a supportive culture that helps to empower parents to best advocate for their child
• discuss problems with the view of finding solutions
