Session Description:
Are you a new family literacy practitioner in a CALP-funded program? Or are you a trained family literacy practitioner who is curious about how family literacy programming can reach adult foundational learners while supporting learning for the whole family?
In this participatory training, CALP-funded staff will learn what family literacy programming is, why it is well suited to the needs of adult foundational learners and their families, and which practices support effective CALP-funded family literacy programs. To support your program in aligning to the CALP Guidelines, you will also gain an understanding of the programming requirements for family literacy programs as outlined in the CALP Guidelines.
