Mission 

The  mission of the Center for the Study of Adult Literacy at Georgia State University is to engage in basic and applied research and to support an exchange of information among the adult literacy professional community. As the demand for literacy increases, so does the need to develop our understanding of what literacy is, the variety of ways in which it is acquired, and the full range of effective teaching methods to develop literacy.

The center's goals focus on:

• Developing a broad-based program of interdisciplinary literacy  research;
• Providing information and resources for the adult literacy  community; and
• Promoting a focus on women and literacy.
