Investing in #AdultLiteracy is more important than ever. Foundational literacy is a gateway to multiple literacies – civic, digital, financial, health, information – which impact social & economic mobility. Increasing adult literacy could boost the annual GDP by $2.2 trillion💰
It’s true - 54% of adults in the U.S. struggle with foundational literacy. Nearly 1 in 5 adults (~43 million) read below the adult equivalent of a third-grade level, and less than 10% are getting the literacy support they need.📚
ICYMI: ALA along with members of the Adult Literacy and Learning Impact Network (#ALLIN) received a $400,000 National Leadership Grant from @US_IMLS to design adult and family literacy support centers for libraries nationwide.
We are excited to partner with @ALALibrary and fellow members of ALL IN to design adult and family literacy support centers for libraries nationwide, codesigning resources for library professionals to enhance services.
