\"DIS-400x600_R3\"<\/a>Dyslexia affects 1 in 5 individuals, and Harvey Hubbell<\/a> (who has dyslexia) is spreading the word across the nation that dyslexia is a difference, not a disability. The award-winning independent filmmaker screens his well-reviewed film, Dislecksia: The Movie<\/b><\/em><\/a>\u00a0at a special appearance at Santa Barbara High School<\/a> on Friday, January 17 at 7 p.m. (700 E. Anapamu St.).<\/p>\n

The event is FREE to the public and is the only Central Coast showing scheduled during Hubbell\u2019s West Coast tour. A Q & A session will follow the film.<\/p>\n

The film explores the issue of learning differences that are widely misunderstood, and the reason for much difficulty in school; due to increasing research and technological advances, these differences can be handled in a positive way \u00a0when there\u2019s greater awareness and understanding.<\/p>\n

The event is sponsored by the Santa Barbara School District<\/a>, the Santa Barbara Education Foundation<\/a>, The Kirby Jones Family Foundation<\/a> and The Dyslexia Project<\/a>. Spanish interpretation will be available.<\/p>\n
