The original list linked each name to the partner’s home page. Those addresses have changed many times since 2013, so the links are not carried over.

Our Partners (2007)

The first version of the site, in 2006–2007, showed a shorter list in its sidebar:

  • Virginia Literacy Foundation
  • Virginia Commonwealth University
  • VCU School of Education
  • VCU Center for Public Policy
  • Virginia Office of Adult Education & Literacy (also given as Virginia Department of Adult Education)

From 2009 to 2011 the footer of every page carried three: the Virginia Literacy Foundation, the Virginia Department of Education and the VCU School of Education.

Questions readers ask

Who were the Institute's founding partners?

The Virginia Literacy Foundation and Virginia Commonwealth University, through its School of Education and Center for Public Policy. The 2007 site also listed the Virginia Office of Adult Education and Literacy.

Why do Norfolk and Virginia Beach appear on a Richmond list?

By 2013 the early literacy work (ExCELL) had partners outside Richmond, including Norfolk Public Schools, Virginia Beach GrowSmart and the Virginia Beach Public Library.
