National Institute for Literacy (NIFL)

The National Institute for Literacy (NIFL) was a U.S. government organization dedicated to improving literacy in the country. Established to address issues of reading and writing skills, NIFL focused on research, policy development, and providing resources for educators and communities. By collaborating with various stakeholders, including educators, researchers, and literacy organizations, it aimed to enhance literacy programs and promote effective teaching methods. Although it was absorbed into other educational initiatives in 2011, its commitment to boosting literacy remains influential in ongoing efforts to improve reading and writing skills across the nation.
