SILA Assist
SILA Assist (SILAA) was created to provide relief and development help in locations where SIL Australia or its partners are engaged. Consistent with the heritage of SILA, the particular focus of SILA Assist is in language areas like literacy and basic multilingual education. Many minority language communities are severely disadvantaged because they cannot read or write, even in their own language. SILA Assist works with local partners to assist with personnel and finances to help overcome this burden.
