About Literacy in Kamloops
Our Story
Literacy in Kamloops (LinK) is the result of the 2010 Legacies Now Community Literacy Initiative. For Kamloops, the process began in September 2006 when we applied for planning funds and through community consultation developed a Community Literacy Plan. We submitted the plan to 2010 Legacies Now in April 2008 and received implementation and coordination funds. In September 2009, we hired a Community Outreach Coordinator to manage the implementation of the plan. LinK continues to meet regularly to revisit the goals of the plan and work on implementation of those goals.
