Maharashtra Dyslexia Association (MDA) is a not-for-profit organisation committed to securing the rights of students with Dyslexia (also known as a ‘Specific Learning Disorder or Disability’) to an appropriate education.
MDA was started in March 1996 by a group of parents and professionals with a view to creating awareness about Dyslexia within the educational community and the general public, and advocating the rights of these students.
MDA began in 1996 driven by a profound belief that every individual with dyslexia has unique strengths waiting to be recognised. What started as a small initiative with a few dedicated parents and professionals has grown into an active organisation at the forefront of Dyslexia support and advocacy. We continue to expand our reach, develop innovative programmes and build a community of support. MDA is a member of the Global Network of the International Dyslexia Association (IDA).
