Our structure and funding
NALA membership is open to all people and organisations interested and involved in adult literacy development. At our annual general meeting, members elect an Executive Committee, which make sure our aims are put into practice. The Executive Committee includes students and tutors, adult literacy organisers and people involved in adult and further education and training.
NALA is a registered company with limited and charitable status. We receive a grant from the Department of Education and Skills that enables us to staff a national office in Dublin and a regional office in Cork. The Department of Education and Science also fund specific research and development work together with other government departments, state bodies, the European Union and the private sector.
