LDs – which is short for learning disabilities – affect one or more of the ways that a person takes in, stores, or uses information. LDs come in many forms and affect people with varying levels of severity. Between 5 and 10 percent of Canadians have LDs.
LDs are a life-long condition – they do not go away – but can be coped with successfully by using areas of strength to compensate and accommodations such as technology.

Executive Functions are a set of brain-based skills that allow a person to execute tasks and reach a goal. People use these skills every day to initiate, manage, attend, plan, organize and regulate feelings to complete tasks. Children are born with the potential to develop these skills.
