IDA GEORGIA’s 2024 DIMENSIONS OF DYSLEXIA CONFERENCE: THE KEYS TO STRUCTURED LITERACY is an in-person conference to be held in Milledgeville, GA on the Georgia College & State University campus on Saturday, September 28. This year, we will also host a Friday night welcome dinner for speakers, board members, award winners, and sponsors.
