For International Literacy Day (Sept 8th), we’re delighted to announce a powerful collaboration:

Over 25 organizations across Canada have joined forces to suggest a National Literacy Framework as part of a joint federal pre-budget submission.  Read our document here: Advancing Literacy in Canada: Our Joint Call For Action in a Pre-Budget Submission.

Together, we’re proposing robust literacy policies that will ensure all Canadians have essential literacy skills, address systemic barriers, and support well-funded, inclusive literacy programs. We aim to make  literacy a key driver of growth, inclusion, and empowerment.

We invite you to like and share our social media posts.  We will post this image and link to our pre-budget submission on September 6th and 8th.

Please note, the submission is also endorsed by the following organizations who logos are not shown in the image:

  • Foundations Learning
  • Literacy Coalition of New Brunswick
  • MinibiblioPLUS / Fraser Hickson Institute
  • NWT Literacy Council
  • IWK Health “Read To Me!”
