Alabama Southern is now offering a FREE Family Literacy Program

What is it?
Family Literacy is a comprehensive program that allows parents to return to school to improve their skills and provides an educational experience for their children at the same time.

For the Parent:

• Basic education classes
• Career planning
• Parenting education
• Transportation if eligible

For the child:

• Reading readiness
• How to get along in school
• Homework help
• Tutoring

For the Parent and Child Together:

• An opportunity to enjoy learning together

Family Literacy is a team effort- community agencies working together to find ways to solve the problems parents face when they need to further their education or get a better job. With the support of these agencies, trained staff and volunteers, education becomes affordable and productive. Parents are then able to take responsibility for meeting their own goals.

If you or someone you know is interested in this program call: Anthonell Abrams at (334) 637-3181 or Kay Lett at (251) 575-8274.
