 This assistance is to help students in Oklahoma & North Texas to pay for psychology testing for children or young adults with ADHD, Dysgraphia, Dyslexia or other learning disorders.

Often students face hardships in the classrooms due to lack of resources in their communities and resources in their local public schools. This fund is to assist families and students with the necessary resources to increase their success in the classroom.

This program will include resources for parents and educators.
