COMMUNITY LITERACY JOURNAL 8.1 (Fall, 2013) Special Issue: YOUTH,
SEXUALITY, HEALTH, AND RIGHTS, Guest Edited by Adela C. Licona and
Stephen T. Russell The journal understands "community literacy" as
the domain for literacy work that exists outside of mainstream
educational and work institutions. It can be found in programs
devoted to adult education, early childhood education, reading
initiatives, lifelong learning, workplace literacy, or work with
marginalized populations, but it can also be found in more
informal, ad hoc projects. For COMMUNITY LITERACY JOURNAL, literacy
is defined as the realm where attention is paid not just to content
or to knowledge but to the symbolic means by which it is
represented and used. Thus, literacy makes reference not just to
letters and to text but to other multimodal and technological
representations as well. We publish work that contributes to the
field's emerging methodologies and research agendas. CONTENTS:
