The Literacy Center is a wonderful resource for helping adults learn to read. While I'm a board member, I am also a tutor. I work with a 63 year-old man who is learning to read. He struggles, but continues to make progress.

As someone who has loved reading since I was about 4 years old, I find it difficult to imagine all of the problems one would face without this skill. The instructions on an aspirin bottle, an insurance form, or any type of directions would be incomprehensible. It's really an honor to be able to help people learn this skill and The Literacy Center makes this possible at no cost to the student.

The Literacy Center in Evansville, Indiana is an organization that has enthusiastic and dedicated staff members who work towards the goal of providing reading skills to adults who lack proficiency in reading. More important than quality of their teaching skills, however, is the care and sensitivity that these volunteers who offer their time to clients express - to enable these men and women to feel that they have worth, that their reading deficits are not permanent, and that they can overcome these obstacles.
