Colton Public Library seeks adult volunteers for our Advance to Literacy Program. This program helps adults who want to improve their basic reading, writing and speaking skills. Basic math skills are also part of our program. All training and materials are provided by the library free of charge. Tutors meet with their students at a time that is convenient for both parties. Many students in our program are working towards GED's, better jobs, and opportunities in higher education. The one to one nature of our program provides a learning environment in which adults can reach their educational goals.
