Grace, Grit and Gratitude
(eBook)
A 30-Year historical account of family literacy and the National Center for Families Learning founded by Sharon Darling. Told through the stories of families, "Grit, Grace, and Gratitude" shares how one woman's desire to teach adults to read turned into a nationwide movement to lift families out of poverty. "Grit, Grace, and Gratitude" tells the powerful stories of families who gained knowledge, courage, and the confidence to pursue educational and career goals, often against all odds of any success, and through their own grit, grace, and gratitude not only survived but thrived. This book also shares the history of a nonprofit organization that propelled a small but successful program model in Appalachia into a national movement, of an organization that continues thirty years later to provide guidance, practice, and strategies to consistently deliver family literacy program models that work. And, this is the story of a journey, the journey of a woman who every day embraces her own grit, grace, and gratitude, to advocate for families who have no voice. Her voice is strong, and her vision is simple, all parents want the best for their children and families, and given the proper support, all families can succeed. They just need a place to start. Family literacy is that place.
