our purpose
Improve
Literacy
in the state of Kentucky
With the right support, fueled by the right research, almost anyone can read. But what is that critical support and how do we bring it to everyone?
We provide free reading resources where parents, caregivers, teachers, and all educators can come to be informed and empowered. With research not just based on what we think, but what we know. That’s accessible, understandable, practical, and above all actionable. Proven through rigorous academic studies and programs, validated by measurable results, designed to close the literacy gap one learner at a time.
The Kentucky Reading Research Center is both a virtual clearinghouse for literacy research, and a place for everyone to begin their journey to literacy competency attainment and achievement. Together, bringing the power of reading best practices and understanding to all.
