Does anyone know of any programs or options an active duty service member has with identifying and coping with dyslexia? My husband has been having trouble with standardized testing and admitted to me to me a few things that sound like this could be the issue. He recounts stories of his reading/writing when he was growing up and says that those anxieties are starting to come up again. I want him to seek help and would like to find whatever information I can to get him help, but he fears it will jeopardize his successful military career (far as we know the military frowns upon any disability). I continue to be positive, encourage and support him but as his wife of 10 yrs I can see the defeat in his eyes. WE NEED HELP!
