FAMILY LITERACY

Learning is a lifelong practice and begins with the help of caregivers and other adults in the community.

Our family literacy program promotes:

  • The value and benefits of literacy for the whole family

  • Skills and strategies to create a literacy-rich environment in the home

  • Increased confidence of parents in their role as their child's first teacher
