Literacy has become a world issue that touches the life of every citizen of all countries of the world. There is enough recognition that we cannot think of personal development and economic opportunity or participation as full and active Canadian citizens in all spheres of life in the absence of literacy.

That is why literacy programs are integrated into all multi-faceted day-to-day life of our communities and we see an ongoing commitment of these communities to support literacy as a key to personal development and to the socio-economic progress of our nation. Thus we always hear about special activities planned at community level to promote literacy and life-long learning, and to celebrate local literacy achievements. These activities include open houses, community reading festivals, literacy displays, fundraisers and literacy awareness initiatives that target the whole neigbourhood. You will find below, examples of community newsletters that report literacy activities in some of our communities:
