Adult Literacy Project
 Did you know that 22% of adults in the U.S. function at the lowest levels of literacy?
Simple tasks often present huge barriers:
- Completing a job application
- Reading a medicine label
- Registering to vote
- Opening a bank account
- Helping a child with homework
In Palm Beach County, over 70,000 adults share these concerns.
Help your friend, co-worker, or neighbor achieve their goals as parents, employees, and members of the community.
- Make a difference – volunteer a few hours each week.
- Teach an English-speaking adult to read and write.
- Materials and training are offered free of charge.
A highly rewarding experience awaits you!
