Review for Literacy Network, Madison, WI, USA
Literacy Network is a great organization. Literacy Network offers free or low-cost literacy services to adult learners. It is difficult to overstate the organization's impact on the learners, their families, and the greater community. I have volunteered as a citizenship exam tutor and seen how their work changes lives. I have also been a board member the past several years and know the staff is passionate about the mission and efficient in the methods they use to deliver on that mission.
Imagine navigating the pandemic with low literacy skills. Imagine having a child in remote learning without English proficiency to talk to your child's teacher. Literacy Network empowers adults in these and similar situations to succeed in all aspects of their lives. The organization also provides outstanding volunteer opportunities to the community through many tutoring programs. Connecting the adult learners with tutors leads to positive outcomes beyond just the students' success stories. It builds strong community and reminds us to look out for one another - something that is now more important than ever.
