Welcome to Adult Education and Family Literacy Week 2024!

Join scaleLIT along with local and national partners for AEFL Week activities

National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week raises public awareness about the need for and value of adult education and family literacy. Its goal is to increase financial and societal support for access to basic education programs for U.S. adults with low literacy, numeracy, and digital skills. Advocates across the country use this opportunity to elevate adult education and family literacy nationwide with policymakers, the media, and the community. Since 2009, National Coalition for Literacy has sponsored National AEFL Week on behalf of its members and the field as a whole, and has worked with Members of Congress to have the week recognized through resolutions in the Senate and the House.
