literacy programs
Teaching people reading
Literacy programs are organized efforts to teach reading and writing skills, typically to adults or children who lack basic education.
They range from volunteer-led community initiatives to government-funded campaigns: The library runs a free literacy program for immigrants.
Programs may target specific populations—prisoners, refugees, rural communities—or address functional literacy for workplace needs.
