Center for Structured Literacy

The Center for Structured Literacy at the University of Akron exists to equip and apprentice educators in the science of reading and structured literacy through the translation of the latest scientific research. We train educators to make data-driven decisions and apply evidence-based strategies to support all students, including those with learning differences.
