Zusammenfassung:Families have been faced with new challenges and uncertainties during the unprecedented times when the world came to a standstill due to COVID-19 in March 2020. The pandemic caused a shut-down of schools and a shift to a remote learning environment with little chance to prepare and understand learning expectations from schools and other educational programs. As a result, family literacy programs were in a position to simultaneously support adult and young learners during this time. The purpose of this guide is to highlight changes in education due to the pandemic and to discuss how to support families now and in the future. Recommendations are provided for family literacy programs related to sustaining and adapting adult education, parent education , and interactive literacy in a blended learning environment, while simultaneously supporting the adult's and child's learning.
