Welcome to the Brazos Valley Literacy Coalition. We are a coalition of community members and organizations in the Brazos Valley who are concerned about literacy. Illiteracy affects us all. We know that literacy is the key to a better life, a better community, and a better world. We welcome your input, ideas, and support.
The mission of the Brazos Valley Literacy Coalition is four-fold:
-
To help better the lives of adults in our community who suffer from functional illiteracy.
-
To help adults in our community learn English so that they can understand medical professionals, talk with their child’s teacher, get a job or advance in the one they have, and keep safe in the workplace.
-
To help young children (0-5) gain a foundation of literacy skills needed to enter school ready to succeed.
-
To help school aged children advance in reading skills to read on or above grade level.
