There are many ways you can make a difference.

	did you know... Adults who improve their literacy skills can get better jobs, have fewer health problems, and can help their children be successful in school.

Literacy Volunteers has a volunteer opportunity for you, regardless of your age, experience, background, or amount of time that you can give. Our volunteers include working professionals, students, retirees, stay-at-home individuals and parents, and former literacy students. They all have one thing in common-the desire to make a difference in their community by contributing their time and talents to the cause of adult literacy.
