Mission

Growing Readers for Life! The mission of the Children's Literacy Network (CLN) is to design and implement literacy-based programs to provide equitable opportunities for children to develop a love of reading and books. Children's Literacy Network is an active participant in the Cradle to Career Initiative, which is focused on meeting children's needs throughout their educational and developmental stages. CLN takes an active role in making sure children are ready to succeed in kindergarten, in ensuring all children will read proficiently by the end of third grade, and in supporting the overall goal, that all youth will graduate high school.
