The Enhancing Access for Refugees and New Americans project provides resources and technical assistance to adult education state agency staff, local programs, and instructors who serve or are aiming to serve English learners in Integrated English Literacy and Civics Education (IELCE) programming and are interested in using an immigrant integration approach. Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA) requirements offer IELCE programs opportunity to support learners’ linguistic, economic, and civic integration needs.
A network of partners may deliver these services to adult English learners, including internationally-trained professionals.
RTI International leads the Enhancing Access project team, which includes researchers from RTI International, World Education, Safal Partners, and WestEd.
