Westport, CT (PRWEB) February 23, 2012 Smart Kids with Learning Disabilities, Inc. (SKLD) recently sponsored the launch of the i CAN! Program, as a test pilot in the Northeast, in efforts to empower children with learning disabilities. The program highlights strategies that focus on what children can do rather than what they cannot do. Developed by Karen Ayoub of Greenwich, Connecticut with the assistance of SKLD, the program premiered at Winston Preparatory School in Norwalk, Connecticut. Over 80 students and teachers, representing grades six through 12, participated. A majority of students reported the program helped them understand themselves better, and empowered them to feel more confident in pursuing their dreams.
