WHO WE ARE Literacy Through Hip Hop is an innovative literacy program for children in grade six and seven. The program uses the popular youth culture of hip hop, specifically hip hop music, as a means to engage children about their reading and writing. Our aim is to improve the literacy skills of children in this crucial stage in their development by connecting it with something that many young people are interested in and excited about.
