Technology and culture are becoming more complex. To lead productive and enriched lives as individuals and families, we must all be lifelong learners. We need to offer opportunities and encouragement for everyone to develop the skills they need to achieve their potential.
Literacy is complex.
Literacy at work, at home, and in communities may require different skills. Literacy is part of real life concerns and issues in people's lives. Literacy is the foundation that supports our democracy, economy, culture and communities. The Center for Literacy Studies takes a long-term view of the ongoing needs for literacy education. Our work helps to build capacity to meet the needs of learners and communities in our state and region.
