American Reads Challenge: Program Analysis

In 1996 another program was financed by the government, it was called American Reads Challenge. Its purpose is to help kids learn to read but help provide an environment where the entire family can better their skills in literacy if it is needed. This program definition was a child may learn to read, but if the adult cannot perform the same skills, then the cycle can continue. So in the best interest of the family would be to break that cycle and that is what the program agenda. I find it rewarding to see the government doing what it can to solve the adult literacy problem in our country. The problem still has shown no real progress I believe it can be traced to the fact we have programs but none has stood out as the standard to follow each program is base on funding which has it objective. Within these programs, the similar goal is that reading will result in a person economic growth. This should not be the only focus the change of the family culture the importance of the whole family dynamic when it comes to education.
A person who faces such challenges when it comes to learning how to read can best tell his or her story on the success of reaching such an accomplishment. Having someone like that to speak can be, and inspiration to those who are willing but yet lack the desire to learn. It is necessary to give those in need a role model who was once just like them but was able to reach their educational goals (Belzer, 2002). With the help of those individuals who face adult literacy, they can provide a service to educators on the best way to teach
