Welcome to the staff
homepage of the Intergenerational Literacy Project (ILP). The ILP
began offering literacy instruction to parents in 1989. The program
was developed in collaboration with 17 community organizations, and
is guided by a Board of Collaborators representing participating parents,
the Chelsea Public Schools, Boston University, and community organizations.
The program seeks to accomplish the general goal of supporting families
in working with their children, both to attain the instructional objectives
of the schools and to reinforce positive attitudes toward education.
To accomplish the larger goal, two sub-goals and objectives have been
outlined: to improve the literacy skills of participating adults and
to improve literacy knowledge among pre-school and school-aged children.
