About International Literacy Association

Mission: ILA connects research and practice to improve the quality of literacy learning across the globe in ways that are respectful, responsive, and ethical.

Our Work: ILA is the professional home for literacy educators in Delaware and across the globe. For nearly 70 years, we have set the standard for how literacy is defined, taught, and evaluated. Here in Delaware, we provide resources, networking opportunities, and support for literacy instruction in schools through in-person and online professional learning.
