Adult Literacy & Learning in Family Literacy

Trainers: Cheryl Lovstrom and Val Rathjen, CLN Regional Support Staff

This workshop is for Coordinators, Facilitators, and Administrators of CALP-funded Family Literacy programs.

Parents come to Family Literacy programs for a variety of reasons. As Family Literacy Coordinators and Facilitators, we want to ensure our programs are welcoming places for parents as learners – to build their confidence as their child’s first teacher and to enhance their own foundational skills and practices.

In this workshop participants will:

• Understand how Family Literacy programs provide Adult Foundational Learning opportunities
• Learn how to engage parents by using adult learning strategies in their Family Literacy program

There is no fee to CALPs for this training, but pre-registration is required.

Registration Deadline: November 10th, 2017

Registration is based on a first-come, first-served basis.
