American Literacy Corp

The American Literacy Corporation (ALC), founded in 1992 by Dr. Jo M. Stanchfield, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing literacy skills across the nation. ALC recognizes and rewards certificated educators who significantly improve their students' literacy levels, believing that teachers are crucial to fostering skills in listening, speaking, critical thinking, reading, and writing.

ALC annually grants the Outstanding Contributions to Literacy Award, providing $3,000 to exceptional teachers and $500 to their schools for reading or language arts activities. The organization also offers free resources and strategies for educators, parents, and others to support reading aloud and improve comprehension for students in transitional kindergarten through eighth grade.
