About Literacy Works

Literacy Works believes that access to education and information is essential for a just society. We work to advance adult education and communication equity for all. We stand as a key resource to community-based literacy programs, providing low-cost, high quality educational guidance and support. For programs throughout Illinois, Literacy Works serves as a central source of professional development, networking, and peer learning. Through our work in adult education, we have seen first hand the need to address the systemic barriers that many people face, especially those that have been historically harmed by systems. Our Clear Language Lab offers training, consulting, and coaching services to nonprofit and governmental organizations in a variety of sectors. We work with organizations across the country to make their communications more clear, accessible, and equitable. Our vision is that one day, literacy will be recognized as a basic human right, supporting people along their journey to read, write, and interpret the world.
