Literacy First - UT Austin

by UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS FOUNDATION

Mission
At Literacy First, we view literacy as a human right and envision a world in which every child has the opportunity to become a confident, lifelong reader.

Vision
We teach young children how to read, equipping them to excel in life and realize their dreams.

Approach
Since 1994, we have partnered with public, Title I elementary schools and community organizations to offer our high-impact tutoring program to emerging readers in kindergarten, first, and second grade. We train early literacy educators to implement our model—in both English and Spanish—using our proprietary curricula, data tracking system, and coaching model. Culturally sustaining practices, data, and research drive our program, which we continually adapt to meet our students’ and partners’ needs.
