111,000 by end of 2027

Project 111K

What if 111,000 people—children, teens, and adults—could discover a new path to learning and thriving by spending just minutes a day for one week?

Project 111K is a movement to transform the literacy landscape by inviting 111,000 individuals to complete the Hidden Genius Literacy Assessment (HGLA) by the end of 2027.

This is not a test. It's an awakening.

Diverse community learning circle with parents and educators of varied backgrounds in thoughtful conversation

The invitation

Too many capable learners conclude they are not smart enough — quietly, over years, often before anyone names what is actually hard.

Project 111K exists to shift that timeline: to bring attention, language, and community participation to the foundations beneath reading, writing, and confidence — at a scale that changes the conversation.

A one-week immersive experience

Each participant spends minutes a day for one week in an experience that goes beyond traditional literacy metrics. Through engaging, curiosity-sparking activities, they:

Feel the difference between confusion and clarity

By exploring the contrast between order and disorder, participants experience firsthand how learning environments either fuel or frustrate potential.

Receive a personalized Alphabet Coherence Score

This reveals how fluently their brain-body system connects with the foundational building blocks of all learning: the alphabet.

Unlock their Natural Ability Profiles

A unique profile highlights innate strengths and learning preferences — so school, work, and life can be reimagined from a clearer starting point.

Who can participate

Everyone. Children, teens, and adults — individuals, families, schools, and communities — are invited to take part.

  • Learners whose effort outpaces their ease
  • Families searching for a deeper explanation than “try harder”
  • Educators and organizations ready to host the conversation
  • Communities that want literacy change at meaningful scale

Built on the Alphabetter™ methodology

This experience is based on the Alphabetter™ methodology — a multisensory approach developed by The Learning Force to foster the joy, clarity, and success that conventional literacy systems often miss.

The Hidden Genius Literacy Assessment is the practical first step: a structured week that helps participants see what is actually happening beneath the struggle — without shame, blame, or reducing anyone to a label.

How to get involved

  • Complete the Hidden Genius Literacy Assessment as an individual or family
  • Host a talk or community conversation in your school or organization
