NORTHERN NEVADA LITERACY COUNCIL
Patty Aragona's Company Details
The Northern Nevada Literacy Council (NNLC) was founded in 1978 and incorporated in 1983. We are a 501(c)3 community-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping adult learners complete and achieve further goals in education, while also reinforcing family literacy behaviors. NNLC provides free classes to adults who want to complete their Certificate of High School Equivalency (HSE, formerly known as the GED), as well as free English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, free Citizenship classes to foreign-born adults, and a Family Reading Program.Last year, 145 NNLC students graduated with their HSE certificates. NNLC exceeds the state by students who enter and retain employment. NNLC also exceeds the state of Nevada almost three times by how many students transitioned into post-secondary education or training by 100 percent.
