In 2003, Truman State University and the Scottish Rite agreed to co-found and support a new program to prevent literacy problems in children who are at high risk. Services to children and their families are provided by students and faculty of the Truman State University Communication Disorders program, with the generous support of the Scottish Rite. The Scottish Rite provided funds for furnishings and materials, faculty training, and other program start-up expenses.
