DOVER - Alanna Bonneau of Dover was recently honored by Girl Scouts of the White and Green Mountains for
working tirelessly to help young people cope with Hidden Disabilities.
Bonneau understands helping others with issues of hidden disabilities is very personal to her as she has had to educate her own teachers and others about accommodations she needs.
She created a website to document common hidden disabilities like dyslexia, ADHD, anxiety/depression, vision problems, language processing, sensory processing, hearing impairments, memory issues, and autism; created a tip sheet to be used by educators; and started a YouTube channel to promote ways to help.
