When it comes to identifying a learning difficulty, time is of the essence. The sooner a child receives the support they need, the more likely they are to succeed at school, and ultimately, in life. Sadly, for hundreds of families in Quebec and beyond, it can be hard to get an assessment, let alone the proper resources. Waitlists are full of families anxious to get professional help for their child.ÌýÌý

A new gift of $3.75 million to the Faculty of Education from Daniel L. Gold, BCom’59, and Monica Gold, BCom’68, seeks to address this urgent situation.Ìý
