  • Sought to synthesize both professional and peer-reviewed research.
  • Analyzed how literacy practices are framed as relational and contextually situated.
  • Literacy learning is framed as relational and contextually situated across the studies.
  • Storytelling serves as a practice where identity and agency are negotiated.
  • Community-based literacy initiatives are most effective when adopting relational triadic approaches rather than dyadic models.
