Literacy in Action-Lennoxville Quebec

The organization we’re featuring today is Literacy in Action, a community-embedded organization situated in Lennoxville Quebec. This is a story about rural resilience, minority-language realities, and an approach to literacy that begins with belonging.

In today’s episode, we’re visiting English-speaking minority communities in Quebec’s Eastern Townships, 

• English communities scattered across farmland and small towns. 
• With neighbors often 15 minutes apart, 
• Limited English services, 
• Where being part of a linguistic minority can add another layer of challenge to folks who need support in developing literacy skills and accessing support services.
