What Is Learning Disabilities Awareness Month? Learning disabilities are disabilities that affect an individual's ability to either read, write, speak, listen, count or do math. They can be caused by developmental delays or injury. The following month of October is Learning Disabilities Awareness Month. The purpose of the awareness month is to highlight the challenges people with learning disabilities face on a daily basis and how their lives can be improved through awareness and support. We all have to work together in order for this goal to be achieved.
