Adult Education and Family Literacy Act

The Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA) is a U.S. law that funds programs helping adults improve their reading, writing, math, and language skills. It also supports family literacy initiatives, enabling parents to better assist their children’s education. The goal is to increase workforce opportunities, promote lifelong learning, and strengthen families by providing accessible educational resources. These programs are often offered through community colleges, libraries, and local organizations, aiming to empower adults to succeed personally and professionally while fostering a culture of learning within families.
