Generational
Impact

Since 1996, thousands of educators have been trained or certified in IMSE, made possible by state grants. That means tens of thousands of children becoming readers. And we’re just getting started.

Proven Results.
Greater Access.

Traditional instruction does not prepare teachers to reach every student. Proven IMSE training gives educators everything they need to make an immediate impact — with your help, more children will become successful readers.

How You
Can Help

Your donation makes all the difference in children receiving effective reading instruction and a path toward literacy success. Giving teachers access to powerful, proven professional development rooted in the science of reading, providing structured literacy ensures no child gets left behind.

The IMSE difference

IMSE programs are designed around the science of reading, drawing from research in cognition, linguistics, and neuroscience. The result? Meaningful, measurable benefits for all readers.

Measurable Results

Schools that adopt the science of reading report quantifiable gains in fluency, comprehension, spelling, and overall reading achievement.

Smaller Achievement Gap

Structured Literacy has proven effective in closing the achievement gap between struggling and confident readers.

Early Intervention

The science of reading emphasizes early intervention, keeping literacy deficits from becoming more severe over time.

When teachers take IMSE training, they know they’re learning an evidence-based literacy model. When you donate to the IMSE Foundation, you know your support will have a lasting effect. Together, we can reverse the literacy crisis with training that works.
