V!KK! Pike

Tonight Feb. 21st catch me on Rogers TV Durham at 5 Pm

Check out this clip from CityTV, where I share my personal journey overcoming illiteracy, the perseverance that fueled my growth, and my ongoing advocacy work to help others facing similar challenges.

I am excited to share that my college has published an article highlighting my learning journey, the advocacy work I am passionate about, and the pivotal role Durham College has played in my success along with the incredible supports they provide to ensure I thrive.

@Annalina63 Yes, Toronto Sick Kids’ is where the Empower ptogram is from, they are the creators of It, too. I hope this helps you. Plus, if you need any more info, please feel free to ask. 😊

@vikki_pike Do you mind my asking, is the program Empower from Toronto SickKids'?

I just learned, I’m an "instructional casualty". I could always learn to read, but did’t have adeqite instruction available to succeed. At 17 years I got access to an evidence based reading program. Thank you Dr. Jennifer Buckingham for speaking. #R2RSymposium #RightToRead

@Annalina63 Thank you 😊

@vikki_pike Wishing you the very best. I hope the program helps you build your skills.

@AliciaFromTiny Thank you❣️

👇👏👏👏👏👏 well said Vikki!!

@DrCynthiaMB Thank you 😇

Today I learned that this message (generated here in Ontario) has reached around the world. I am in awe and grateful for all the educators and stakeholders from around the world who joined todays Symposium.

As Mr. Kareem Weaver - Education Expert said today; How many of the 157 recommendations from the Right to Read Report will be implemented? Are we collectively going to make change? The Right to Read Report needs to be a Call to Action! #R2RSymposium #RightToRead #IAmASlippster

Generating Ideas: Thank YOU Right to Read Symposium. I”Today I thought of a way I can help spread awareness to help preschool children start school with tools needed for reading success.. More info to follow next week...So Excited! #R2RSymposium #RightToRead #IAmASlippster

I struggle every day with `Learning to Read` and `Reading to Learn``. There are so many Slippsters (instructional causalities) like me who need intervention now, before they age out of the public education system; like I am about to. #R2RSymposium #RightToRead #IAmASlippster

I'm so fortunate to have been able to join today's Symposium. I'm excited about what I'm going to learn today. If you want to see a recording of today's Symposium, you just need to register. To register just email registration@daontario.com.

I'm so excited about joining the Right to Read Symposium today.! Looking forward to learning how I can help make a difference. #R2RSymposium #RightToRead
