Literacy Partners strengthens families through a two generation approach to education. With our free classes, community workshops, and educational media, low-income and immigrant parents and caregivers develop literacy and language skills they need to succeed in today?s world. Our research-based programs incorporate child development and parenting support to help parents and caregivers boost children?s early reading, social emotional growth, and school readiness. Designed to arm every parent and caregiver with the necessary tools they need to create success for themselves and a better future for the children in their care, Literacy Partners? programs break the cycle of poverty, improve job prospects, and close the achievement gap for children before they even begin school.
