Mission

To engage, educate, and empower communities of adult learners by advancing literacy skills & employment opportunities to achieve a better quality of life.

About

From a launch in 1987 with 3 learner/volunteer tutor pairs, the Adult Reading Center has achieved steady, managed growth over the last 30 years to 8 full-time and 7 part-time employees, and over 100 volunteers assisting adult learners each year. The Adult Reading Center doing business as the Adult Education Center is a complete service center using a comprehensive approach that will take adult learners from learning to read, write, and speak English to obtaining a Texas certificate of high school equivalency and a job earning a living wage while becoming contributing members of our community. In FY2018-19, the services the center provided without charge impacted 602 individuals through 38,694 instructional contact hours which include work skills assistance. In addition, we had 125 individuals who volunteered their services to advance the mission of the center. The total cost benefit returned to the community for volunteer and professional instructional hours [$25.15 per www.independentsector.org] was $948,325.
