“I appreciated the strength-based approach. That resonates with me whether we are considering how to intervene on an organization’s or individual student’s behalf. When I report out on students who have been identified with a Specific Learning Disability I also speak to how “Learning-Abled” they are and remind the Team that some of the most effective interventions come from building on/utilizing one’s strengths to assist in skills areas that are less well developed. Same concept, just applying to a larger system.” -Gayle
