- Over 500,000 British Columbians have challenges with literacy. (16% of British Columbians are at Level 1 literacy or below.)
- Due in part to limited literacy skills, 45% of British Columbians aged 16 to 65 have difficulty accomplishing some daily living tasks, including filling out a form, comparison shopping, and understanding instructions. (These are individuals who are at or below Level 2 Literacy in the latest OECD international adult literacy survey.)
- 60% of Canadian adults don’t have the skills to manage their health literacy needs.
Langley Literacy Resources
Literacy weaves through all aspects of community life, the Langley Literacy Network aims to serve the literacy needs of adults, families and communities.
Literacy develops in the context of everyday activities, so it is important to involve the whole community in supporting literacy learners. By raising awareness of the importance of literacy in community groups and building their capacity to support adult and family skill development we can magnify the benefits for individuals, families and the community as a whole.

Education in Langley
British Columbia has a rich history of accessible adult education programs. In recent years, these programs have undergone significant changes. Most recently, in August 2017, a tuition-free policy for domestic students in Adult Basic Education and English Language Learning programs at Public Post Secondary Institutions was implemented.
The elimination of tuition fees is aimed at improving access, allowing more students to gain the required skills to pursue their personal, education, training and employment goals. Learn more about the BC Adult Education Policy Framework.
