Alabama Literacy Act

This act addresses literacy education and the delivery of literacy services, opening with legislative findings on the need for organized statewide literacy efforts and defining the terms used throughout. It establishes a literacy council and an associated literacy foundation to guide and support that work, and it authorizes grants to fund literacy programs. The act also provides for technical assistance to providers, coordination among the entities involved in literacy work, and rulemaking authority, including the power to request services, assistance, and data.
