Parent Literacy Training (PLT)

  • What Is Parent Literacy Training?

    Parent Literacy Training (PLT) is a structured, research-based program designed to help parents become confident partners in their child’s literacy development.

    Grounded in the Science of Reading, PLT helps families understand how children learn to read and provides practical, easy-to-use strategies that can be applied at home.

    This is not tutoring. This is about giving parents the clarity and confidence to actively support their child’s reading progress every day.

  • Who This Is For

    • Parents of school-age children

    • Families who want to support literacy development at home but aren’t sure how

    • Parents of children who are struggling or not yet confident or competent readers

    • Caregivers who want to build strong literacy habits early

    • Schools and organizations looking to strengthen family engagement in literacy

  • What You Can Expect

    Through Parent Literacy Training, parents will:

    • Gain a clear understanding of how reading develops

    • Learn practical strategies to support foundational skills like decoding and fluency

    • Feel more confident supporting reading at home

    • Build consistent routines that lead to real progress

    As a result, children:

    • Develop stronger foundational literacy skills

    • Become more confident and independent readers

    • Experience greater success in school and beyond

  • How the Program Works

    • Monthly interactive sessions (in-person or virtual)

    • Hands-on learning and guided practice

    • Tools and resources designed for home use

    • Ongoing support to help families stay consistent and encouraged

  • Why Parent Literacy Training Works

    Many literacy efforts focus only on what happens in the classroom.
    PLT extends that learning into the home—where children spend the majority of their time.

    By equipping parents as active partners in the literacy journey, we create consistent support that reinforces what children are learning and helps them grow with confidence.

    This approach strengthens not only reading skills, but also the connection between parent and child.
