About the Sonoma County Literacy Coalition

The Sonoma County Literacy Coalition (SCLC) is the single, central literacy organization of Sonoma County offering free assistance and Sonoma County Literacy Coalition access to all areas of literacy resources.

The SCLC represents a group of over forty literacy providers who serve an extremely diverse population in ages, as well as in cultures. The growing multi-cultural population in Sonoma County is the biggest challenge facing literacy providers. For many in our population, English is their second language. All second language learners benefit from their literacy providers. For adults, job opportunities improve with English proficiency. For children, school performance improves with English proficiency. SCLC is dedicated to achieving literacy for all members of our society. Literacy does change lives!

It is the mission of the Sonoma County Literacy Coalition to raise the awareness of literacy problems and solutions within Sonoma County and to provide a networking organization that enables providers to reach out to even more learners.

The free SCLC Literacy Hotline is 707-573-3399, extension 122.

Some of the events we participate in or have sponsored are:

  • Annual Sonoma County Book Fair
  • Dictionary Challenge held at Coddingtown, 2001
  • Raising the Level of Literacy, Informational Meeting 2002
  • Annual Racial equality week

Membership fee for provider agencies is $20 per year. Call our Literacy Hotline to get involved or for more information.
