"If a child can't hear instructions properly or process what they see, how can we expect them to succeed academically? Awareness and early intervention are crucial."
Today, we dive into the critical topic of visual processing disorders and their impact on learning and development. We are joined by two distinguished guests, Sue Mann and Michelle Kotler.
Sue is the founder of Bright Minds Processing. She's an advocate for children’s rights to comprehensive eye exams, especially those with Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) and Visual Processing Disorder (VPD). "Our mission is to educate as many parents about children with APD and VPD. Together we can lobby schools to implement solutions. Our collaboration of professionals will empower parents and families so they can work with us to implement our APD and VPD programs into their schools."

Michelle has 30 years of experience in special education, providing consultation and advocacy for families seeking to help their children receive an appropriate public education. Michelle's background as a teacher, school administrator, and attorney gives her a unique perspective on the intersection of legal and educational challenges in addressing visual impairments.
Our discussion covers the importance of proper eye exams, the challenges in the current educational system, and the profound implications of visual and auditory processing disorders.
Discover how you can contribute to raising awareness and supporting the necessary reforms to help every child succeed.
