[TL-Directors] Oregon’s Early Literacy Success Initiative: Community Focus & Grant Opportunities

Wed Aug 2 17:23:37 PDT 2023

Please pardon the cross-posting. Hi, folks. Yesterday the Oregon Department of Education shared the information below about the new Early Literacy Success Initiative (HB3198). I want to bring the initiative to the attention of staff in various library types for several reasons: because of the focus on “literacy as a community commitment,” the fact that libraries are called out in the Early Literary Framework (K-5), and so you are aware of grant opportunities for Oregon tribes, community partners, and school districts. – FYI and cheers, Jen (Jen Maurer, School Library Consultant, State Library of Oregon)

Re: Celebrating Oregon’s Early Literacy Success Initiative

Dear Partners,

Join us in celebrating the passage of the Governor’s Early Literacy Success initiative, HB 3198, which helps bring schools, families, tribes, and communities together in nurturing our children’s literacy and multilingual  development.

This statewide literacy legislation elevates parents and guardians as full partners in their children’s literacy development, affirming the important role of family in shaping children’s literate identity. This legislation is also unique in that it centers literacy as a community commitment, shared among sovereign tribal nations, community partners, and schools. In partnership, we will link arms across Oregon to ensure that each child’s literacy brilliance is seen, affirmed, and strengthened.

To learn more about the Early Literacy Success Legislation, please visit our website<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm9yZWdvbi5nb3Yvb2RlL0Vhcmx5TGl0ZXJhY3lTdWNjZXNzSW5pdGlhdGl2ZS9QYWdlcy9kZWZhdWx0LmFzcHg_dXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWdvdmRlbGl2ZXJ5IiwiYnVsbGV0aW5faWQiOiIyMDIzMDgwMS44MDUyMDY5MSJ9.cwu-Nouks5Y3xmICKzY7dscA4pyHojuKpVd2wZxz_94/s/1308452828/br/223565682789-l>.
