Learning Disabilities, ADD
 

A Culture Undiscovered
Explores the needs and experiences of college students, from diverse racial and/or ethnic backgrounds, who have learning disabilities.

Don't Give Up
A year in the life of a four-year-old who has autism, focusing on a special therapy program designed to break through Adrian's communications barriers.

Focus
This film dramatizes the feelings of a withdrawn, depressed high school student with untreated, possibly undiagnosed learning disabilities. The teenaged filmmaker embodies each of the voices battling to control his behavior. Are these inner voices or the real voices of the people in his life: parents, teachers, school counselors, peers? Students will bring their own experiences and feelings to the discussion of this provocative trigger film.

A Mind of Your Own
It's been estimated that every classroom has two or three kids with learning disabilities. This video profiles four courageous kids who don't let learning difficulties hold them back or get them down.
