The Literacy Challenge
The best predictor of a child's literacy level is
the literacy level of his/her parents. In other words,
if you want a child to learn, teach the parent.
That's exactly what Literacy
Volunteers of Greater Hartford does. We teach low
literate adults living and working in the Greater
Hartford area to read, write and speak English.More...

Join us on April 10th for an evening of dining and dancing.
Your donation means a child will
grow up with a parent who can read to her. It gives
a father the skills he needs to pull his family out
of poverty. It helps a new immigrant become an American
citizen.
We are looking for individuals
who have the time and personal commitment to contribute
to our mission to provide language support for adults
in our community. Since Literacy Volunteers provides
the initial training and continued support of our
volunteers, no teaching experience is required.
