Blosser Center For Dyslexia

The Blosser Center for Dyslexia Resources, located in Portland, OR, is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping students with dyslexia reach their full potential through the power of literacy. Founded in 2000 by Dorothy Blosser Whitehead, a renowned leader in reading specialist standards, the center offers individualized instruction in reading, spelling, and comprehension using the research-based Orton-Gillingham approach, which provides structured and sequential instruction for dyslexic readers and those struggling with literacy skills.

As the only independent center in the Northwest accredited by the Orton-Gillingham Academy, the Blosser Center offers diagnostic testing, referrals, and intensive one-on-one tutoring to youth diagnosed with dyslexia. With nearly 20% of the population experiencing symptoms of dyslexia, such as slow reading, poor spelling, and mixing up similar words, the Blosser Center aims to empower individuals with the gift of literacy, making a significant difference in their learning and lives.
