Multi-Party Mobilization for Adolescent Literacy in a Rural Area: A Case Study of Policy Development and Collaboration
 For the past five years, the state of Maine has focused on adolescent literacy as an important part of its school improvement efforts statewide. This case study chronicles the work and progress of five schools participating in a five-year adolescent literacy research study-a project that began as a modest rural effort in one county and led to change in state-level reform efforts. Because the project involved research, practice, and policy, the story is one of understanding local and state needs from a variety of perspectives and mobilizing the partners necessary to meet those needs. The multi-party collaboration in this study helped convert the county-focused effort into a vehicle for broader state-level pursuit of high school improvement. This publication was developed in partnership with the Center for Resource Management. | |
