Whether you’re focused on your classroom, home, community, or constituents, we have a number of resources and tools available to help you advocate for media literacy education. The MLN Resource Library is offered as one convenient source of information, like any other library.

Each year, we publish the Media Literacy Policy Report outlining the status of media literacy education laws for K-12 schools in the U.S.. The 2022 report was released in February 2024 and shows the significant progress of state-level policymakers as well as other organizations and key institutions and individuals to recognize an urgent need for media literacy education and to take action.
