Families for Literacy

FAMILIES FOR LITERACY (FFL)
Families for Literacy is part of the Alhambra Library Literacy's Adult Program. Learners in the Literacy Program who have young children are eligible to participate in Families for Literacy activities and programs. Families for Literacy's goal is to help parents with preschool aged children develop family reading skills and habits. In partnership with tutors, Families for Literacy hopes to improve the educational environment of the family and strengthen the support for reading and learning in the home. As a tutor you can make a crucial difference by stopping the cycle in which non-reading behaviors are passed from parent to child. Families for Literacy teaches low-literacy parents to model reading behavior and to pass on a love of books. FFL helps encourages reading together. It's the starting point of all learning.
