We don’t ever want to work in a vacuum.
And we always want the support we provide to be relevant.
So every year, we conduct a Needs Assessment.
But –
What exactly IS that, anyway?
Our Needs Assessment is an annual survey where we ask Texas adult and family literacy providers what they need most. We ask a range of questions, looking both forward and back, to help figure out what we’re already doing that we should continue or expand, what we should change or stop doing, and what new ideas we should add to our activities.
This is your single best opportunity (but not your only opportunity!) to help influence our decisions for the coming year:
- What should we focus on at regional symposia?
- Who should we invite to present at the conference?
- What other trainings and resources do you need?
- What wild card ideas do you have that we should consider?
We use the results of the Needs Assessment throughout the year – your responses influence regional symposia, online training, and our annual conference (among other things).
The 2023-24 Needs Assessment has now closed.
The 2024-25 Needs Assessment will open in May 2024.
We’d welcome responses from anyone involved in Texas adult and family literacy programs, especially those at community-based organizations (non-federally funded programs). Please feel free to share the link to the Needs Assessment with other Texas literacy folks.
