LITERACY NJ
At Literacy New Jersey, we believe every adult deserves the opportunity to read, write, and communicate effectively. Through our trained volunteer tutors, we provide free, personalized instruction in reading, writing, math, & English skills.
Funding from the Westfield United Fund goes toward supplies, training, and much more, strengthening Literacy NJ’s ability to help hundreds of people a year.
”For many, learning to speak, read, or write English means securing better jobs, supporting their families, and engaging more fully in their communities.
Our students are now able to navigate daily tasks with confidence, whether that filling out important forms, reading a job application, or communicating with teachers and doctors.
The impact ripples out beyond the classroom, as our students achieve long-term personal and professional success.”
