Carol Clymer and Esther Prins have been awarded a grant from the William Penn Foundation. Their 30-month project, “Continued Evaluation of Family Literacy Initiative,” has been awarded $376,311. The Goodling Institute has been conducting an independent, formative evaluation of five family literacy programs that have been funded through the Family Literacy Initiative. This evaluation will continue to provide evidence of the initiative’s theory of change, strengthen program implementation, assess the impact of these family literacy programs, and inform the Foundation’s future grantmaking efforts.
