Mission Statement
Literacy Delaware offers targeted instruction to adults with limited literacy and English language skills. We assist adult learners to realize their potential as confident, self-sufficient, and productive employees, family members and contributors to their communities.
About This Cause
Literacy Delaware, Inc. is in the business of assisting adults reading at or below a 5th grade reading level and/or adults who do not speak English to significantly improve their literacy skills. We believe literacy has the power to “open minds and change lives”. Volunteer tutors receive approximately 21 hours of training in which they learn a variety of techniques to assist them in tutoring. Training consists of 4 sessions meeting face-to-face in addition to online instructional modules. A tutor commits to a yearly 90 hours of tutoring . Many tutors have continued to teach long after completing their initial commitment. Literacy Delaware provides ongoing support and guidance to trained tutors through in-service workshops and assistance from staff. Many other volunteers assist with learner orientations and evaluations, tutor orientations, training, and special events.
