Mission Statement
The mission of the Peninsula Literacy Coalition is to see every child in our community succeed at reading. We accomplish this by engaging the community, championing the work of educators and literacy providers and promoting the use of best practices. We believe that by working in collaboration, we can have a greater impact and provide every child an opportunity to become a proficient reader.
Description
The Peninsula Literacy Coalition is a grassroots movement to help local schools attain their literacy goals. We operate under the guiding principal that district-wide success comes from the collective impact of full community engagement--educators, healthcare groups, public service orgs, businesses, faith communities and other sectors--all pressing toward a common goal. Our coalition is not a creator of programs, but a rallying point to channel volunteer and support resources into programs that already have a proven track record of impact and success.
