“Literacy is more than reading words on a page — it’s the key to opportunity, independence, and a brighter future.”

Our Adult Literacy Program is the only one of its kind in the Pine Belt, designed to empower adults with the essential skills they need to succeed in everyday life. Through one-on-one instruction with trained teachers, participants build confidence in reading, writing, and comprehension—skills that open doors to better employment opportunities, financial independence, and stronger family support. More than just a class, this program is a pathway to self-sufficiency, offering hope, dignity, and lasting impact for generations to come. Whether you’re looking to improve literacy, earn your GED, or simply gain the confidence to read in daily life, our programs provides the tools and encouragement to rise and thrive.
