Who We Are
We’re driven by the belief that literacy should be accessible to all.
Forward Literacy exclusively advocates for literacy education reform and results.
We support science-based reading policy, intervention, and accountability to benefit and enhance literacy outcomes for all Wisconsin children.
We are action-focused, dedicated advocates for change. Through our efforts, we worked with the Wisconsin State Legislature and Governor Tony Evers to develop and pass landmark bipartisan legislation to drastically reform reading education in Wisconsin.
OUR THREE-PRONGED APPROACH
A ROBUST GRASSROOTS NETWORK
We’re building a statewide network of parents, policy makers, school districts, and other stakeholders who are committed to literacy education reform in their communities and the state.
LEGAL SUPPORT AND EDUCATION
We’re empowering and educating parents about their students’ rights and support school districts in meeting their legal and educational responsibilities. This is to ensure compliance with the new law, 2023 Wisconsin Act 20, and litigate when necessary.
REFORM AND IMPLEMENTATION
We’re working to protect the integrity of 2023 Wisconsin Act 20 from efforts to dilute or eliminate the law’s literacy reforms, which are based in the science of reading and ensure readers reach grade level.
