What is Community Literacy?It is a discourse of shared problem solving that leads to increased literacy levels and united communities, promoting the vision of 100% literacy through 100% community engagement. Community literacy includes all family members and community stakeholders with a vested interest in a highly literacy community to promote personal success, economic, educational and social justice.

Low Literacy Is the Number One Indicator of PovertyOur task is to address the needs of the
millions of people who have limited literacy skills resulting in individual poverty and lack of community prosperity.
Solving this problem gets at the root of educational, social and economic issues in a way that no single subject does.

a stronger economy by attracting more jobs benefits and higher wagesdecreasing turnover and increasing
productivitycreating a community with less poverty and
crime.
Stronger families support the education of children by breaking the cycle of intergenerational illiteracy

There is No Question that higher literacy levels result in …
Greater civic participation moving communities toward justice and equality for all, generating volunteerism and charitable work, energizing an informed electorate, and creating a cleaner, safer environment.
A healthier population raising the quality of life in a community and reducing health care costs through lower morbidity rates, better prevention and screening, better navigation of the healthcare system, and better management of major chronic disease.

What Can Coalitions Do?The challenge is that the solution needs a mega scale approach that is evaluated, supported and sustained over time.
It requires collaboration on a scale not seen in community literacy initiatives in the past.

Trends – Community LiteracyThere is an increase in funding public/private
collaborations across the country around the issue of literacy infusion (programmatic, fund development, awareness and regional planning).
More coordination by creating partnerships across program types and traditional funding streams to address the issues that create poverty and the underlying low literacy skills.
