DID YOU KNOW?
In the U.S., 22% of adults function at the lowest levels of literacy. In Palm Beach County, that’s over 70,000 adults! Simple tasks present huge barriers:
- Completing a job application and preparing for the interview.
- Obtaining citizenship and registering to vote.
- Helping children with homework and communicating with their teachers.
- Filling out medical forms and following medication instructions.
A highly rewarding experience awaits!
- Volunteer a few hours each week to make a difference.
- Teach an adult to read, write or speak English.
- Materials and training are offered free-of-charge.
