2025 Literacy Resource Drive

The One Joplin Education and Literacy Team needs your help gathering supplies to support early childhood and youth literacy.

Donated items will be used in Joplin Parents as Teachers home visits.

Books will be distributed to area families with information about children and adult literacy resources. 

Many ways to get involved!
