Adult Education

Hopelink's literacy program works to equip our community's adults - many of them parents - with the basic literacy skills they need in order to be better family members, workers and community members. Hopelink's Literacy Learning Centers provide a crucial element in the development of self-sufficiency, helping adults improve their family's safety, stability and security.

Many classes and tutoring programs are taught or provided by trained volunteers. Volunteer resources are available on our tutor support page.
