What our students have said:
I was looking for a place to learn and to grow and to pursue my dreams. I can read better and understand what I read, as well as solve math problems I couldn’t do before. It takes hard work and motivation on my part, and the Literacy Alliance provides the teachers, classes, and kindness to help people at no cost. I am so grateful and thankful for the Literacy Alliance.
– Ms. H.
