A Map Tailored to Getting Your Work In Front of the Families Who Need it the Most
The work your organization spearheads is vital to what makes Nashville’s literacy community strong; however, families may have a hard time finding the amazing tools you offer. The Nashville Black Literacy Map places your programs and business within a uniform citywide network of resources, increasing your visibility amongst Nashville residents and potential funders.
How You Can Use It
-
Get listed so families searching for literacy resources can discover your services and contact you directly using the information provided.
-
See where services are concentrated and where gaps exist, supporting you in deciding where to expand your services or focus.
-
Identify schools, community centers, or organizations to partner with to maximize available resources, rather than duplicating efforts independently.
-
Raise awareness of your organization and its purpose amongst educators, families, and funders who use the map as a reference.
How To Use It
Submit your organization or business via the map’s listing form, including your services, location, and contact information.
