text: In 2006, we began a roll-out of Empower™ Reading: Grades 2-5, Decoding and Spelling in partnership with six school districts.Now, more than 30 school districts in Ontario, and across Canada have implemented the program, and starting in 2016, the program is being used in India and the New Haven, Connecticut. More than 1400 teachers have been trained and have implemented the program with more than than 20,000 students
  Several of these school boards have conducted independent evaluations of the program's effectiveness and have reported very promising results.
