Can you read this? Consider yourself lucky!

As a root cause of unemployment, underemployment, and poverty, low skills contribute to homelessness, food insecurity, poor health outcomes, poor civic involvement, and weak parenting skills. Illiteracy is a hidden cost of living we all bear. When adults improve their literacy skills, they become more productive employees, more engaged parents, and more responsible health care consumers. It is a tool that leads to lowered dependence on supportive social services. The opportunity to teach adults who are ready to learn is one we can't afford to miss.

Believing that literacy is the foundation for a sustainable community, Washtenaw Literacy provides literacy support, free of charge, to adults through a network of trained tutors.
