COVID Relief for Community Literacy!

Ask Governor Evers to designate COVID-19 stimulus funding to literacy programs.

We need your help to make the case to State leaders.

  1. Personalize then copy the text from the sample letter.
  2. Paste it in the contact form for Governor Evers under "Share your opinions with Governor Evers."
  3. Select "Education" in the Subject drop down menu.
  4. Select "Support" in the Position drop down menu.

Congress has passed three COVID-19 relief packages. The third package includes funding for governors and State education agencies to support a variety of educational needs, especially those adapting services to students for the COVID-19 pandemic.

We believe that Governor Evers and State agency leadership should direct some of this funding to support adult and family literacy programs, particularly as they make the transition to virtual learning.
