Advocacy

by Janine B.

The READ Center is an adult education program for adults that can’t read and people that want to read better. There are people that donate their time to teach adults that can’t read. This program has one on one tutors and classes. They are very patient and understanding. They have helped me out so much. I was a woman that was embarrassed and ashamed until I met the READ Center a few years back.

The students help each other out. We make each other feel like we do matter and not to give up.

I know there are some people out there that are tired of people doing things for them because they can’t read. When you can’t read you end up with people in your business. Who wants that? This program can help you get your life back.
