About this organization
Mission
Mission: We empower Central Floridians to be thriving members of our community through literacy and education. Purpose: We serve by building a literate community. Vision: The Adult Literacy League is the leading voice of Adult Literacy in Florida. We are at the forefront of a coalition of adult and family literacy advocates and partners connecting to improve literacy and quality of life throughout our communities. We do this by addressing the root causes of low literacy in adults, effective remediation programs, and innovative prevention programs. Values: Teaching and learning; Inclusiveness and diversity; Respect for all; Innovation; Visionary problem solving; Integrity; Generosity of spirit. The Adult Literacy League, ALL, is the largest nationally-accredited literacy organization in Florida and one of the most highly regarded in the nation. A winner of both the Neighborhood Builder Award from Bank of America and the “Excellence in Education” award from the state literacy coalition, the League has provided the highest quality of service in the Central Florida community since 1968. During this time, we have expanded our services to meet the literacy needs of the community so that thousands of our friends and neighbors are now able to be self-sufficient workers, fully participating citizens and more effective parents.
