Adult Dyscalculia Support Group

Hi there!

A bit about this group: Dyscalculia is a learning disability that affects a person’s understanding of numbers, quantities, sequencing, & math concepts. There is very little awareness, advocacy, research, or support for those with dyscalculia and those experiencing its symptoms, especially within the adult population. With the research that has been done, dyscalculia is thought to affect roughly 3-7% of the population.

Are you someone who struggles with directions, managing finances, reading analog clocks, executive functioning skills, and working memory? These are only a handful of areas that dyscalculia affects. If parts of you resonate with some of this, then we would love to have you in group! No official diagnosis of Dyscalculia is needed. Because there is such a lack of awareness and understanding, it often goes undiagnosed, especially in adults.

For this first meetup we will keep things very casual - we will get to know each other and play some games, color, or puzzle (Queermunity, our meeting space, has many of these available! They also sell coffee and such). We'll go over some brief group guidelines and expectations to ensure that everyone feels safe and comfortable! My intention is for this to be a very low pressure hang, and if you arrive to find that the vibes are not for you, there is no obligation to stay for the duration of the hour. This is a free support group. I do hope to see you there! :)
