Their mission is to help adult education programs secure resources and training so that under-resourced adult learners can become economically successful. By doing so, scaleLIT reframes adult basic education as a critical public policy issue. scaleLIT offers a variety of programs and services to advance adult literacy.

They assist their members in career pathways, digital literacy, and health literacy. Additionally, scaleLIT provides direct services in career pathway navigation and digital literacy. With 20 years of experience, scaleLIT was formerly known as the Chicago Citywide Literacy Coalition (CCLC).

The change to scaleLIT reflects their vision to expand services and help organizations effectively serve the community using adult literacy best practices. Through partnerships, resources, and training, scaleLIT empowers adult learners to thrive in their communities and address the social determinants of health, work, and connection
