The National Adult Literacy Agency (NALA) is a charity committed to ensuring that people with unmet literacy, numeracy and digital literacy needs can fully take part in society. According to the last international survey, one in six people in Ireland has an unmet literacy need. One in four people has an unmet numeracy need and one in two people have an unmet digital literacy need.

These unmet needs have devastating consequences for individuals, communities and the economy. People at the lowest literacy and numeracy levels earn less income, have poorer health and are more likely to be unemployed.

Since we were set up by volunteers in 1980, we have been a leading campaigning and lobbying force on adult literacy issues. We have been involved in national policy; tutor training and teaching resources, research and campaigns to support people with these unmet needs.

We are an equal opportunity employer.
