Literacy Mid-South is working with Laura Taylor, an Associate Professor of Educational Studies at Rhodes College. As part of the Raleigh Literacy Zone initiative, we are working to learn more about the community's existing resources and needs to support literacy development. 

We are looking for parents and caregivers in the Raleigh area to help us with this work! Specifically, we are looking for people who would be willing to participate in an interview and take photographs of their family's literacy activities. Parents and caregivers can earn up to $200 for their participation, and the information they share will help inform future literacy investment in the community. You can find more details about the project, including frequently asked questions, here.

We will be hosting informational sessions coming up on October 17th(virtual) and October 22nd (in-person). People interested in learning more can sign up for a session at this link. Even if you are unable to attend one of those information sessions, we encourage you to sign up, so that we can let you know about future sessions.
