The Sacramento Literacy Festival at Oak park’s Farmer’s Market is a collaboration to advance the Promise Zone Literacy Initiative – Sacramento’s nationally recognized project to achieve literacy advances in affordable housing student communities. Post-pandemic, only 37% of 3rd grade students in Sacramento County are at grade-level reading and only 27% were at grade-level in the Promise Zone; a clear example of the disproportionate negative impact on historically marginalized communities.
