2010 ProLiteracy California Summit
The January 21 meeting of the Southern California Library Literacy Network included a ProLiteracy Symposium featuring
- An environmental and organizational update
- A presentation from United Literacy, a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to provide information and supplementary educational resources for adults with low-literacy skills.
- A "town hall" discussion session for attendees to discuss their program needs, to learn about ProLiteracy resources, and to help shape ProLiteracy's new California Initiative.
ProLiteracy, based in Syracuse, NY, is the world's largest organization of adult literacy and basic education programs today. The ProLiteracy California Literacy Initiative is an effort to strengthen services to programs in California. This Symposium includes a town hall session in which programs are invited to voice their needs and interests with ProLiteracy, to inform the direction for the California Initiative.
