The Intergenerational Literacy Project (ILP) was begun in 1989 to achieve three purposes:
To accomplish these goals, the ILP offers literacy instruction to parents of preschool and school-age children. No direct instruction is provided to children; rather, the project is based on the premise that as parents improve their own literacy, the skills and knowledge they gain will promote literacy learning among their children. In addition, as parents share reading and writing with their children, they will support their own literacy learning through practice and application.
