Improving Lives Through Literacy in Dane County, Wisconsin
关于我们
One in seven Dane County adults struggles with low literacy. That's 55,000 people. Our Mission: Literacy Network teaches reading, writing, communication, and computer skills to Dane County adults so they can achieve financial security, well-being, and deeper engagement with their families and the community. Literacy Network is a non-profit organization in Madison, WI founded in 1974. We work with teachers, tutors, volunteers and donors to improve adult literacy in Dane County. Our programs help adults find career opportunities, read with children and help with homework, improve computer skills, understand finances, and speak with doctors about health concerns. Literacy Network programs include classes and tutoring programs throughout Dane County which engage more than 500 volunteer tutors and serve more than 1,000 adult learners each year. Our strong partnerships with businesses, libraries, hospitals, clinics, schools, and social service agencies build essential community connections for our program participants. Learn more about how you can support our work by visiting https://litnetwork.org Would you like someone to come speak to your group about Literacy Network, the work we do, and ways to improve and support adult literacy in Dane County? We can do that! Email [email protected] or call (608) 244-3911.
