Welcome to the International Dyslexia Association – Pennsylvania

Message of Leadership Transition

Welcome to the IDA-PA website! On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Jessica McKee for her dedicated leadership and steadfast commitment as President of IDA-PA. Under her guidance, our organization has continued to grow, connect, and advocate for individuals with dyslexia and those who support them.

As we move forward, I am honored to serve as Interim President for the remainder of the year, with Melanie Young stepping into the role of Vice President. Together, we remain deeply committed to advancing IDA-PA’s mission, to provide resources, community, and evidence-based support for educators, families, and individuals affected by dyslexia.

We invite you to explore our site, engage with our community, and join us in continuing the important work of literacy advocacy across Pennsylvania.

Warmly,
Jenn Sharek
Interim President, IDA-PA
