Who We Are

We are advocates for children’s literacy, committed to ending the literacy crisis. With deep ties to our target communities, we are personally invested in the wellbeing of our children. When a child reads, a community succeeds!

What We Do

LINC works throughout New York City’s five boroughs to surround children with literacy-rich environments. We disrupt intergenerational illiteracy by training parents to help their children embrace reading. Parents become literacy ambassadors within their communities, engaged with resources that already exist in their neighborhoods. The entire community contributes to the goal of raising readers, creating a culture of literacy at the neighborhood level. We generate lasting change. 

Our Impact

LINC creates lasting change at multiple levels.
