The image is a map of various counties within the Appalachian region of the United States, including sections of states such as Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and others up to New York. Counties are color-coded based on the percentage of adult literacy, with a focus on adults reading at or below the 8th-grade level. The color gradient ranges from red (indicating higher percentages of low literacy, up to 88.1%) to green (indicating lower percentages, at 36.5%). A color key on the right side accompanies the map, clarifying the percentage range each color represents. The map background is a simple gray outline of the United States, focusing on the Appalachian region. At the bottom, there is the logo of the Appalachian Learning Initiative along with contact information and social media icons. The data source is marked as the National Center for Education Statistics, 2020. The image features an artistic sunset landscape with a warm color palette of oranges, browns, and yellows. In the foreground, a large conifer tree stands silhouetted against the sky. The background shows rolling hills fading into the distance with the sun setting near the horizon, casting a soft glow. Birds are silhouetted flying in the sky. The scene is overlaid with bold white text promoting a survey related to adult education services in Appalachia. The bottom left corner displays the APPLI logo, and a QR code is adjacent to the survey link. The bottom right corner features "Follow us" followed by social media icons. The image features a multicolored map of the Appalachian region outlined by state borders on a gradient background transitioning from blue on the left to orange on the right. The map highlights specific counties within the region, each shaded in various colors including blue, red, orange, and beige. To the left is large white text stating, "Help Us Build the Appalachian Adult Education Directory." Below the map is a white link in large font: "https://cutt.ly/APPLI-Adult-Ed-Survey." The bottom left displays the logo of the Appalachian Learning Initiative with the website, "www.appli.org." In the bottom right corner, there is text reading, "Follow us @APPLIORG," accompanied by icons for social media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube, along with a QR code.

The image is a map illustrating Medicaid coverage in the Appalachian region of the United States. The map highlights various counties across multiple states, with a color gradient ranging from light pink to dark purple representing the percentage of Appalachians relying on Medicaid for health insurance. Darker shades indicate higher percentages, with the darkest areas primarily located in central regions. A legend on the right corresponds to the color gradient, showing a range from 3.3% to 53%. The map covers parts of states including New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. Below the map, it states that 4,351,101 Appalachians rely on Medicaid alone for health insurance, according to the American Community Survey, 2023. The image is a map highlighting SNAP utilization across the Appalachian region, covering parts of several states including New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. The map uses a gradient color scale from light yellow to dark green, denoting the percentage of Appalachians relying on SNAP benefits, with 1.9% in light yellow and 36.2% in dark green. Most areas display various shades of green, indicating diverse SNAP usage. The map also features Tennessee, North Carolina, and other neighboring states for context. A legend is provided on the right. The bottom left shows the Appalachian Learning Initiative (APPLI) logo and their website. In the center, a large text states that 3,880,086 Appalachians rely on SNAP, based on the 2023 American Community Survey. Social media icons are in the bottom right.

APPLI is dedicated to researching and reporting on the disparities that impact people living in the #AppalachianRegion and engaging in #Advocacy to create solutions to address them.

As part of this effort, we have launched the first iteration of our #AdvocacyToolkit:

The image is an illustrative graphic featuring silhouettes of five people raising their hands against a stylized landscape of layered hills and a setting sun. The color palette includes warm tones like oranges and yellows, with accents of teal and dark green. At the top left, there is a logo with a stylized bridge above the text "APPLI Appalachian Learning Initiative www.appli.org." On the right side, in prominent black text, the image reads, "Raise your voice and demand to BE HEARD" followed by a shortened URL, "cutt.ly/APPLI-Advocacy." The bottom part of the image contains the text "Appalachian Advocacy Toolkit."
