The family literacy concept makes explicit what has been implicitly understood, and recognizes the family as an institution for education and learning and the role of parents as their children's first teachers. The starting point for the development of human resources within a culture is the family. Families provide an intergenerational transfer of language, thought, and values to the minds of their new-born infants and throughout the formative years of their children's lives. Families provide initial guidance in learning to use the cultural tools that will be valued and rewarded within the culture. Families interpret the culture for their children, and they mediate the understanding, use, and value placed on the cultural tools for learning and education, of which the capstone tools are language and literacy. The author presents the European partnership project Literacy Cubed - Focus on Roma Families. The programme was piloted in three countries: Montenegro, Romania and Slovakia from December 2013 to November 2015. Project LIT3 supports the reading and health literacy skills development of three generations: primary school children (aged 6-11), their parents/carers and their grandparents. The goal of Project LIT3 was to raise the attainment level of Roma children in general education. Non-governmental organization Orava Association for Democratic learning is the main coordinator and implementer of the project in Slovakia. We present the experiences of the project team with requesting and engaging of stakeholders of the Literacy Cubed - Focus on Roma families (LIT3) project in the city of Dolný Kubín (Slovakia) in the paper.
