Throughout the northwest there are a number of literacy projects. One such project is Project Literacy Houston. Over the last eight years Houston has had a volunteer adult literacy service — tutors working on a one-to-one’ basis with adults who need help with reading, writing, numeracy, or English skills, ; The service is confidential and free. The programs are in- dividualized to meet the needs of each learner. Learners work with trained tutors who give of their time in order to share the skills and the love of reading and writing. Over the years many learners show have spent years hiding, faking, and copying have, through tremendous acts of courage, come forth to take an active part in their own learn- ing.

If you are having difficulty with reading and writing or know someone who is, contact your local literacy project. Lack of literacy skills affects everyone within a community.
