Literacy Volunteers offer free one-to-one and small group tutoring for adults in our community who wish to improve their English literacy skills.  Jane* sought out our literacy program because she struggled with reading and writing on the job. After working with her tutor for less than a year, Jane received a promotion at work with better hours and higher pay.  Stephen* credits time well-spent with his tutor enabled him to go without an interpreter to a conference with his son’s teacher and being able to read the requested paperwork.  Pat* credits the Citizenship class for successfully passing the exam to become a U.S. citizen.

Participants not only improve their own lives but they become active contributing members of our community as they reach their literacy goals.  Goals which can be as simple as reading to a child or as grand as being accepted into college.  Literacy Volunteers–HBPL is an organization filled with dreams and victories.
