Keystone Opportunity Center's Family Literacy Mission Statement:
The mission of the Keystone Opportunity Center's Family Literacy Program is to provide an opportunity for area families to develop parenting and life skills necessary to improve their educational and functional status within the family environment, and the community at large.

Family literacy programs address the literacy needs of all members of the family while promoting parents’ involvement in their children’s education as their children’s first teachers and most powerful influence of their academic success. These programs improve educational opportunities of eligible families by integrating early childhood education and adult education in a unified program. They also strive to build on existing community resources, implementing and maintaining local educational partnerships for family learning.

The purpose is to break the cycle of poverty and illiteracy through an intergenerational instructional program, to improve the educational opportunities for children and adults by integrating early childhood and adult education for parents into a unified family program, and to implement collaborative relationships that build on existing community resources creating a new rang of services.

A four-level program for both parents and children (birth to age 8) includes classes for:
Adult Education/English as a Second Language
Parenting Education
Parent and Child Time Together
Early Childhood Education
