Welcome to the Alexia Center Association
The Alexia Center Association strives to become the premier online center for people with Alexia or Dyslexia and those with visual impairments due to traumatic brain injury or stroke and their caretakers. Alexia is the name given to a condition that is also refered to as Dyslexia or Word Blindness. See the 'Education' link for more information about this.
Alexia Center Association has developed into a mission that provides information and support center for people with Alexia, Alexia without Agraphia, Pure Alexia, Word Blindness, Dyslexia, Word Aphasia or other reading impairments for themselves and their caretakers. Today, Alexia Center provides a growing portal that offers:

Alexia impacts thousands people worldwide, and stroke is the third largest killer in the world. Little known to a cure or therapy is available.
