Get Involved in Literacy!
Children who participate in literacy programs improve their grades and test scores, improve their reading skills, and are less likely to drop out.
Ultimately, for YLP to have success there must be bold participation, contributions of time and resources and result measurements. To this end, we will continue to creatively confront illiteracy and develop solutions with supportive entities; private businesses and others already committed to improving literacy skills among our youth.
