"The Coalition of Lifelong Learning Organizations (COLLO) was started decades ago as a coalition of organizations working to advance adult and lifelong learning. [It brings] together leaders of these organizations to advance knowledge, find common ground, and take collective action to benefit adult learners in areas like access, cost, and removal of barriers to participation in education at all levels...[Its focus is on] awareness building, advocacy, input on and support of legislation at the state and national levels and in collective action where consensus can be achieved." [From the organization's website, http://www.thecollo.org/.
COLLO is a successor organization to the Coalition of Adult Education Organizations (CAEO), which was formed in the early 1960s as adult educators recognized the need for greater interaction among adult education organizations.
The Coalition of Lifelong Learning Organizations (COLLO) Records consists of material relating to COLLO, its formation, organization, and operation.
