They are the ones who are doing the hard work, pushing through barriers and reaching for success. Given that the LDA is a grassroots advocacy organization composed of individuals with specific learning disabilities, families, practitioners and researchers, I am humbled that the Association thinks that I am deserving of this award.鈥�
