A new literacy program is set to benefit students in the Permian Basin area. The Permian Strategic Partnership has invested a significant amount of money to launch this initiative.

The program, known as the Permian Basin Literacy Initiative, will provide reading instruction to students. It is expected to reach over 2,000 students in two local school districts.

Further details about the program can be found through local news sources, including Yourbasin and Big 2 KMID + Fox 24 KPEJ. The investment made by the Permian Strategic Partnership totals $5.5 million, and the program is described as a multi-year pilot.
