Any help for getting Jobs for dyslexic people, any UN help available
Dear Sir
Is there any agency like UN or any other International agency etc. which could help getting dyslexia persons some kind of a Job etc. I am in India.
I have seen a lot of dyslexia websites which explain the various schools for correction, but have not come across as to where do these special children go in Life as they grow up, their sustenance, assured bread and Butter for the rest of their lives.

I have dyslexia and it is hard for me to keep up with my co-worker, I have been put on personal improvement plan by my supervisor bascially as a punishment for asking too many questions. The traning for the my position was not great, and me knowing nothing about code enforcement did not help me either. I had to hunt for answers because I did not have a clue of what I was doing. I am afraid at this point I will lose my job. Help!

I am 47 and have dyslexia , I have found that it might take a little longer to learn a task or job requirement but once learned I can excede and surpass the norm, I know it might take those with dyslexia longer in some area's, but we will work harder to get it done,I myself have had go into contracting,because of the obsticles at regular work place,and in that have encountered many new obsticles and uncertianies,help.
