Literacy Instruction for Texas (LIFT) is an education programs organization focused on adult literacy and language learning. Based in Dallas, Texas, it has operated since 1961, aiming to improve individual literacy, GED preparation, and English as a Second Language through a classroom model that emphasizes peer support and community connection. By partnering with local communities and leveraging trained volunteers, LIFT serves adults in neighborhoods where they live, work, and worship, helping learners gain confidence and practical reading skills. The organization positions itself within the education administration sector, addressing gaps in literacy and educational access for adults, and operates with a regional footprint supported by volunteers and community partnerships. In 2020, LIFT announced a new website and social media presence as part of its outreach efforts.
