The Medical College of Georgia Literacy Initiative, a student group on AU’s campus, continues to make a meaningful impact through its ongoing partnership with the Harris Literacy Center and the HUB for Community Innovation. Through community programming, special events, and health awareness efforts, MCG students help bridge the connection between health literacy and lifelong literacy development. Their dedication reflects a shared belief that literacy — in all forms — is essential to helping individuals, families, and communities live healthy, informed, and thriving lives.
At our recent Star Wars community event, the group further supported families and learners through their “Moving Out of the Darkness Into Positivity” activities, which embraced poetry, self-expression, encouragement, and fun. Their creativity and compassion helped create a welcoming space where community members could connect, reflect, and celebrate together.
