Roughly 15 - 20% of children are diagnosed with Dyslexia, and while the resources are out there to support them through education, there's a gap in public knowledge. To help people understand what it is like to live with the condition, Dyslexia Canada partnered with agency Dentsumcgarrybowen to create a [dizzying website](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/assistive24). The site features jumbled letters a background that contrasts the font, making for a confusing reading experience that's similar to how those living with the learning disorder interpret words and phrases.
