The Literacy Council’s volunteer body includes people living in the county and outside it, married couples, neighbors, former colleagues, retirees, and working men and women.
Our volunteers are:
- tutors who helped students pass the citizenship test, get a driver’s license, register to vote, read to their children, earn a high school diploma, sign up for a library card and use it, get a better job, pass the ASVAB test to enter the U.S. military, and much more.
- a team of people who welcome, assess, and assist students receiving our services.
- people who train and coordinate with our tutors.
- the great folks who manage everything from student progress tracking to reporting, governance, and resources.
- and people who help out at events like our book fair.
Here’s a brief overview:
Volunteers come to Literacy Council work in various ways, but they all have one thing in common: a desire to make a difference in someone’s life in the communities where we live.
