The International Journal of Literacy, Language, and Numeracy
Published three times a year by ProLiteracy in partnership with Rutgers University, ALE informs practitioners, researchers, policy makers, and funders about best practices in adult literacy, numeracy, and English language education in publicly funded, community and volunteer-based programs in a wide range of contexts.
