liberating literacy: embrace love, joy & empowerment

Plan now to join IRC at the 55th Annual IRC Conference from March 12-14, 2025 at the Bank of Springfield Center, President Abraham Lincoln Hotel, and the Wyndham Hotel in Springfield, Illinois.  

​

The Illinois Reading Council advocates for high-quality literacy opportunities that empower all learners.  As a leading literacy organization, the IRC provides access to research, materials, and methodologies to teach literacy and promote lifelong learning.  As an active wellorganized system of local and special interest councils and state committees, the IRC provides a supportive network for grass-roots involvement and the exchange of information for a diverse membership.
