Join us for a morning of dynamic speakers, and stimulating conversation with experts, educators and service providers commited to eradicating intergenerational illiteracy, addressing the learning differences that challenge low literacy adults and promoting lifelong reading and learning.

Adult illiteracy is a crisis for Baltimore families and employers.

Family literacy efforts are a fundamental building block for creating lifelong readers, productive adults and children ready to learn.

There is a significant intersection between undiagnosed learning differences and adult illiteracy and the challenges in overcoming it especially among ESL and lower socioeconomic adults.

The increasing current emphasis on workforce and/or post-secondary attainment leaves adults with low literacy and learning differences especially vulnerable with potentially no reliable safety net.
