Community Partners Special Event: Viewing of Movie "Sentenced"

Aloha,

We’re thrilled to invite you to join us for a special evening on Wednesday, November 27, as we come together to watch Sentenced . 
This film shines a light on the critical issues of literacy and justice, emphasizing how literacy, especially in early childhood, can transform lives and communities. The screening will now be held at the Molokai Public Library, and we hope to see you there!

Why This Matters for Early Childhood Literacy

Sentenced underscores the life-altering impact of literacy access. By focusing on individuals affected by low literacy, the film calls for action to prevent similar challenges for future generations. We believe this message is particularly relevant to Molokai, where local organizations are already paving the way for a more literate community.
