Action Alpha - Literacy in Action (LIA) oversees a number of community-based programs aimed at improving reading and writing abilities, encouraging family literacy, engaging volunteers in literacy activities and increasing public awareness. We also provide resources, training, space, computers, and teaching materials to members and partnering organizations. In Quebec, 16% of the population aged 16 to 65 has very limited reading ability. These adults benefit from tutor-assisted learning. LIA helps an adult receive tutoring, and enables families to receive learning resources.
