About Literacy 

HS University's literacy courses are structured to help programs ensure their school readiness. Research shows that exposing very young children to print, books and reading aloud provides them with important concepts that establish a foundation for reading. In addition, Head Start programs can play a key role in family literacy by: increasing Head Start families' access to materials, providing activities and services essential to family literacy development, and assisting parents as adult learners to recognize and address their own literacy skills. The courses provided in the division will help programs design effective literacy programs for both children and parents.
