Autism Petition – Stand Up for Dyslexia

Psychologists use DSM codes to diagnose conditions. In the revised DSM-5, dyslexia no longer has a diagnostic code of its own.
The latest revision, which now omits the term dyslexia, is a significant step backward. This omission will:
• perpetuate the lack of recognition and understanding of dyslexia
• contribute to delays in diagnosis and treatment
