First Literacy Changes Lives

First Literacy envisions a city where adults who want to learn are able to do so without barriers. We help adults in Greater Boston get the basic education they need to improve their lives, their communities, and their children's futures. First Literacy supports adult learners from improving literacy levels and acquiring English language skills through transition to college and beyond.

First Literacy makes a difference by:

• Providing grants to outstanding literacy programs;

• Offering technical assistance, including professional development, to literacy programs;

• Providing scholarships and mentors to adults continuing their education;

• Supporting innovative technology and teaching;

• Assisting innovative projects that fill a gap in literacy services; and

• Increasing awareness of the importance of literacy.
