impact on every facet of society.
- To facilitate and mobilize activities which will result in
opportunities for higher levels of literacy among the people

Background: The Literacy Coalition of New Brunswick Inc. was formed

improving co-ordination and information sharing, improving public
awareness and developing learning materials.
