Literacy and learning are keys to success in life. It is never too late to make a difference in our learning. Literacy for Life programs provide a way for adults to seek out and engage in lifelong learning opportunities in the community – for themselves and their family. These programs help build the Skills for Success needed for work, family and community.

"It is important to affect an individual's literacy development early, but as literacy and learning are a lifetime process, it is never too late and never too early."
