We are grateful to the many local organizations who provide referrals, advertising, and private, convenient meeting spaces for our tutors and learners. We would also like to thank our area schools, area churches, local businesses, civic clubs, and other United Way agencies for their generous support.

Meeting Spaces
"Participation in the Literacy Coalition has been one of the most inspiring things I have done since my retirement. The learner with whom I work has now progressed in her goal of Bible reading to such an extent that she can actively participate in her Bible study class, not to mention the importance of her civic life. We agreed, from the beginning, to orient our work to her interest, but it was evident that a certain skill level would be required for her to successfully handle biblical reading. We are now able to begin each meeting with the Bible, then move on to the structured lesson."
