About the LDRC:

The Learning Disabilities Resource Community (LDRC) has been developed to provide knowledge-building and communication tools for individuals and groups involved in the education of those with learning disabilities and to support research and development in associated fields.

Our goal is to create a repository archiving Canada's knowledge of learning disabilities, and bring together all those across the country who are affected directly or indirectly by learning disabilities.

Who we are:

Our partners include:

• The University of Toronto's Adaptive Technology Resource Centre (ATRC)
• The Learning Disabilities Association of Canada (LDAC)
