Fraser Academy Association (FA) was founded to serve a vital community need. Since 1982, it has become recognized as a leader in North America by leveling the playing field for students with dyslexia, primarily as an independent school (Fraser Academy). Today, FA has expanded its impact through an Outreach and Training Centre (FAx) reaching across BC, Canada and the world. Leading a pioneering initiative to establish Canada’s first Centre for Dyslexia, it is now on an exciting journey to deepen its commitment to the community.
We serve a gap in the system where approximately 20% of the student population is under-served by mainstream education. The ripple impact of our programming also adds great social value. While people with dyslexia have skills and strengths that are in demand in the 21st century, when unsupported, they are vulnerable to social and emotional risks such as mental health issues, substance abuse, homelessness, higher drop-out rates, and poverty/underemployment.
We are proud to be at the forefront of educational and training practices with the most effective research-based methods. p>
