Southside Literacy Roundtable Resources
2011 Southside Literacy Roundtable
In January of 2011, Southside Community Partners reconvened the Southside Literacy Roundtable at the John Randolph Foundation in Hopewell to continue the work toward actionable steps for supporting adults with low levels of literacy. Leaders in administration, education, libraries, human and health services from around the region met to prioritize ideas and outline activities for 2011 to better serve these adults and their families in our community.
