Imagine not being able to read a job application, write a message to a loved one, or navigate the digital world with confidence. For many adults, these challenges are real-but with your support, they can overcome them. Our Adult Literacy Program is learner-centered and powered by volunteers like you!
We support adults as they:
- Improve reading and writing skills
- Build digital skills
- Brush up on English
- Prepare for citizenship, High School Equivalency, or other standardized tests
We especially welcome bilingual (Eng/Sp) volunteers to support learners studying for citizenship or High School Equivalency in Spanish.
Flexible & Supported Volunteering:
- Virtual & in-person options
- Set your own schedule
- Orientation training & ongoing support provided
"The most valuable part of tutoring, for me, are the relationships I have made. I am still good friends with my first learner fifteen years later!" - Kay
Take the first step-volunteer today and help someone reach their goals!
