Literate Voices

A transformative literacy program that integrates

identity, equity, and evidence-based reading strategies.

What We Do

Literacy Curriculum

Full year narrative-centered units for Grades 9-10

Science of Reading Integration​

Evidence-based routines for fluency, vocabulary & comprehension.

Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy 

Lessons that center identity, belonging & student voice.

Professional Development  Workshops for teachers, districts & preparation programs

When students see their stories reflected in their learning, engagement rises, comprehension deepens, and writing becomes a site of empowerment.
