"Unveiling The Hidden Potential: Understanding Black Boys with Learning Differences" was a transformative session that left a lasting impact on our audience.

Leroy Smith’s deep knowledge, passion, and commitment to equitable education shined through as he provided practical, actionable strategies to empower caregivers and educators.

His ability to break down complex systemic challenges while offering real solutions made this session both enlightening and inspiring.

“Leroy Smith's parent workshop, Reading Our Roots: Using Culturally Relevant Texts to Reinforce Comprehension for Black Children with Dyslexia, was truly impactful for our community.

Mr. Smith courageously addressed root cause issues at the intersection of racism and ableism.

He clarified topics in family-friendly terms, providing real strategies to build children's literacy skills and affirm their identity.”

"The Center for Civic Education could not create true High-Quality Instructional Materials like our Project Citizen without your input and expertise! Good civic education needs to be accessible to all and you and Realized Curriculum Solutions make this happen. Thank you, Leroy Smith, M.Ed.!"

"Upon our first conversation, I knew that Leroy had something that so many school leaders and teachers needed. My feeling was proven right after I started advertising his event, Unveiling the Hidden Potential: Understanding Black Boys with Disabilities, and almost 100 people from around the country signed up!

Leroy Smith’s work is about more than just diagnosing the system’s problems, which are well-documented and visible in every school I visit. He creates materials and has an approach that supports advocacy, change, and breaking down barriers for Black boys with disabilities."
