Board of Directors

LDANS is governed by a volunteer board of directors comprised of LD related professionals and parents. We are dedicated volunteers/staff concerned about learning disabilities. We address the belief that parents, professionals, educators - those with LD, working together can solve the complex challenges of learning disabilities. The perspectives and interests of these groups are represented among our members, Board of Directors, advisory council and staff - many of whom are professionals in the field, parents, or adults with LD.
