Join the Sacramento Literacy Coalition
The Sacramento Literacy Coalition brings together local organizations, non-profits, funders and like-minded individuals to move the needle on the literacy crisis in our region. Our goals are:
- Raising awareness of the literacy crisis in our region,
- Identifying potential funders and grantors to support our direct service offerings,
- Advancing of the Science of Reading,
- Putting high-quality diverse books in the hands and homes of our youngest readers.
The Sacramento Literacy Coalition meets on the first Wednesday of each month between 10:00 and 11:00am on zoom and all are welcome. If you sign up here, you will be sent the Zoom link on the morning of the meeting.
