Colorado’s new screening law makes early identification possible, but instruction is the key to success.

Thanks to all who came out to watch the documentary, Left Behind! Did you miss seeing it in person? Or wish a friend or colleague could have joined you?

🎬 Left Behind is now available to stream for a limited time — a powerful reminder of why this month matters.

👉 Virtual Access: October 24 – November 1

🎟️ Watch here: kinema.com/events/Left-Behind-ckbc7o

If you were moved by this film—or missed the chance to attend—be sure to watch and share to help shine a light on the literacy crisis and the right to read for all.

A heartfelt thank-you to Learning Ally for making this possible.
