Literacy
Literacy is defined as “using printed and written information to function in society,
to achieve one’s goals, and develop one’s knowledge and potential.”
(2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy)
“Today, in Oklahoma, more than 400,000 adults can't read. That number represents more than
20 percent of our state's adult population.”

The Ardmore & New Dimension Literacy Councils want to change that. If you'd like to help, we'd love to hear from you.
