Any caregiver of a child with a learning difference, like dyslexia or ADHD, knows the challenges of trying to meet their needs. As Rachel Forbes, Executive Director of the Learning Disabilities Society (LDS) tells Tamara, getting a timely diagnosis and support can be out of reach for many. In this week’s discussion, you’ll learn about what learning differences are and how to recognize them, and discover the network of support available through LDS. Plus, you’ll meet an adorable robot called QT.
From health and wellness, to community and social responsibility, TELUS Talks with Tamara Taggart shares stories, busts myths, and delivers valuable information to Canadians. This weekly podcast is hosted by veteran broadcaster Tamara Taggart.
