Eastern Quebec Literacy Council

At the EQLC, we work to lead English and Indigenous people and families to achieve literacy goals.

With a focus on family literacy and community improvement, we work hand in hand with local partners and schools in our region, as well as the other Literacy Councils across Quebec, federal, and provincial partners. Our most popular programs include tutoring, script service, and the many activities we plan throughout the school year.

💡 You’re vs. Your

You’re = you are
Your = belongs to you

You’re not going to forget this now. 😉

As community organizations working across Eastern Québec, we are raising our voices in support of the long-term vitality and sustainability of our regions🤝

The proposed changes to Bill 101 restricting access to English vocational and adult education would not only limit educational pathways, they would weaken the systems that sustain our communities.

We believe education must reflect the reality of rural Québec, where schools and training centres are not just institutions, but essential pillars of economic and social sustainability.

Contact your local MNA and demand protection for regional access to English adult education and vocational training 🗣️

Les organismes communautaires de l’Est du Québec unissent leur voix pour défendre la vitalité et la pérennité à long terme de nos régions 🤝

Les changements proposés à la Loi 101, qui restreignent l’accès à la formation professionnelle et à l’éducation des adultes en anglais, ne font pas que limiter les parcours éducatifs — ils fragilisent les systèmes qui soutiennent nos communautés.

Nous croyons que l’éducation doit refléter la réalité du Québec rural, où les écoles et les centres de formation ne sont pas seulement des institutions, mais des piliers essentiels de la vitalité économique et sociale.

Contactez votre député(e) provincial(e) et demandez la protection de l’accès régional à l’éducation des adultes et à la formation professionnelle en anglais🗣️

📚 Being able to read words on a page doesn’t always mean the meaning is fully understood.

Reading comprehension is a separate skill that involves making sense of ideas, context, and messages within the text. 💡
