The Shadow Project
Mission
The mission of The Shadow Project is to make school more accessible and engaging for K-8 students with learning challenges like dyslexia, ADHD, autism, and trauma.
Bottom Line for Portland
So many students impacted by learning differences or trauma aren’t getting the classroom support they need to keep up with their peers, feel included at school, and be the best student they can be. Our Goal Setting, Reading Mentors, and SuperSensory Space programs provide educators with the tools, resources, and training to transform school into a place where all students can thrive.
