Cariboo-Chilcotin Partners for Literacy Society (CCPL) has been leading community based literacy activism in the Cariboo Chilcotin, forming in 1997 and becoming a registered society in May 2000.
CCPL members are actively involved in promoting literacy by making presentations, planning for services, fundraising and participating in special events to raise public awareness.
LEARNING = EARNING = IMPROVED HEALTH & WELFARE
Community Partnerships are the key to success. Major funding and support comes from community clubs, businesses, professional associations, service delivery providers and individuals.
CCPL was established in response to literacy as a serious social and economic issue in the Cariboo Chilcotin. More important than the simple ability to read and write, literacy focuses on the ability to use printed information.
You can help by getting involved. There is room for everyone. For more information, please call President Bruce Mack at 250-392-6867.
