When my 7-year-old daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia and auditory processing disorder, I knew she would need specialized therapy and tutoring to thrive—but the costs were overwhelming. Insurance wasn’t covering any of it, and with anticipated expenses of $15,000 to $20,000, I was facing some impossible choices. Although I have health and retirement savings through work, the tax penalties for accessing those funds made it a last resort.

JFLA’s generous, interest-free loan gave me the ability to say ‘yes’ to the support my daughter needs without jeopardizing my financial future. Thanks to this help, she’s now in a school with compassionate educators and tailored resources, and we’ve already seen incredible growth. I'm beyond grateful to JFLA and their donors—this opportunity has truly changed my daughter’s life, and mine.
