History
Learn 2 Read OC became part of California Youth Services, a non-profit in the business of helping people, in September of 2014. Before that, it was an idea from a teacher whose son struggles with dyslexia. In an effort to find a low cost option to help her son, she discovered that there are limited affordable resources in the OC. Therefore, she developed this literacy program to reach those 20% of our population that have some degree of dyslexia. One of CYS' goals is to offer prevention services in Orange County. Given that literacy is a powerful tool that prevents future societal problems, such as crime, substance abuse, poverty, etc., the L2ROC program is an appropriate match to maintain CYS' mission.
