What Makes Us Unique?
Although our primary goal is literacy for all; each of our lead consultants are experts in distinctly different fields. We believe students need masters in their disciplines who are knowledgeable and passionate about their work. We understand the need for children to be available for learning and we also know what stakeholders need to provide to get them there. We can’t simply take a single approach. The Village sees our children in need and we are here to put our collective strengths and passions to work to fill the need.

A Word
From Our Founder
” I can no longer sit back and accept the devastating data being seen across the nation in regard to literacy acquisition. Our students need and deserve action. Technology has made it possible for my team and I to work with students, families, schools, and communities near and far. We acknowledge that the issue of illiteracy at times seems too big to tackle due to all of the competing voices and barriers; however, sometimes all it takes is just one step. We are taking that first step and look forward to seeing the positive impact on students .”
