Abstract
The most commonly cited classification of family literacy programs was developed by Nickse (1990) who created a framework for categorizing programs by the target participant -- adults alone, children alone, adults and children together. What has been missing from the discussion of family literacy programs, however, is who provides instruction. This report presents the findings of an evaluation of a new type of family literacy intervention that goes beyond including families as recipients of instruction by also designating families as providers of instruction -- a family-learner, family-tutor approach identified as Families Helping Families (FHF).
