Literacy Center Details
The Literacy Center was founded in 1970 by a librarian who wanted to help adults improve their literacy skills. For over 35 years, the Literacy Center has provided one-on-one instruction using volunteer tutors that are oriented and trained in the phonics-based Laubach curriculum. This method of instruction has proved very successful to many students and is still used at the Literacy Center today. The Literacy Center continues to offer free services to adults (people over the age of 18, regardless of income) reading below the 8th grade level so they may improve their literacy skills and reach their literacy goals. Our mission is to empower adults and families by helping them acquire the literacy skills and practices to be active and contributing members of their communities.
