The symposium is free and open to the public of all ages, as well as students, staff, faculty, and alumni from any higher education institution or K-12 district across the country.

Dyslexia & Innovation: Symposium of Changemakers or DXI, will take place Oct. 27-28 and will be offered fully online to reach more communities.
