Early Literacy Development Critical to Future Reading Success

Research confirms that supporting children’s early literacy development is a critical to their future reading success. A new resource challenges state and local policymakers to use such research findings to promote an early literacy agenda that can help everyone learn to read proficiently.

Early Literacy: Leading the Way to Success – A Resource for Policymakers is intended to help policymakers make informed decisions about early literacy policies and practices that will give young children a good start in reading. It was produced by the National Institute for Literacy. The Institute, a federal agency, was established by the National Literacy Act  of 1991 and reauthorized in 1998 by the Workforce Investment Act.Download the resource.
