March 21, 2022 -- The Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission (the Commission) is working on a systemic initiative regarding the Rights of Students with Reading Disabilities. The Commission is studying how children with reading disabilities, including dyslexia, experience and receive accommodations in Kindergarten to Grade 12 classrooms.
As part of this systemic initiative, the Commission has prepared surveys for stakeholders with personal or professional experience.
One survey is designed for students/families who have lived experience with system navigation, accommodation, and other aspects of learning to read in the context of reading disabilities.
The second survey is designed for teachers, school administrators, psychologists, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and other professionals who work with students who have, or may have, learning disabilities.
The links to both surveys can be found on the Commission website:

The surveys will remain open for completion until March 31, 2022.
If you require assistance to complete the survey, please contact the Commission via email at shrc@gov.sk.ca or by phone at 306-933-5952.
