Words are POWER.

From academics and careers, to personal relationships and human connections, the ability to read and write effectively is vital.

Children who can harness the power and potential of their own voice can grow to become strong voices in their communities, leading to a healthier and more equitable future for everyone.

But our nation’s children are struggling to keep up. Can you imagine being trapped without the power to communicate your feelings, your ideas and your creativity?

Page 15’s literacy + empowerment programs shine a light on the power of words to empower students of ALL abilities and ALL backgrounds. Building resilience and advancing critical literacy skills will make a positive impact on their lives and communities.
