About Us

About Literacy Texas

Literacy Texas is the statewide literacy coalition, connecting and equipping literacy providers through resources, training, networking and advocacy.

We provide leadership to help community-based organizations that provide literacy services, literacy coalitions and adult education programs throughout the state build capacity and improve literacy levels in Texas. In Texas, 3.8 million people need the services of these organizations. Some of the services provided by these programs are: Adult Basic Education, English as a Second Language, GED, Workforce Preparedness, Citizenship, Family Literacy, Health and Financial Literacy.

Our vision is that every literacy organization in Texas will have the resources it needs to help as many people as possible learn basic literacy skills in order to participate fully in society.
