Mission
Literacy Services of Wisconsin partners with motivated adults to provide access to quality basic education and skills training so they can improve their lives, enrich their families, and strengthen our community.
About
Adult basic education for learners at the lowest levels of literacy - we are the only organization in our community, under a certified staff leader, implementing the evidence-based Wilson Reading System for low literate, low income adults. Through this rigorous program, implemented in a one-on-one volunteer tutor model, we provide highly effective instruction in reading for adults. Mid-level learners are enrolled in pre-GED studies including language mechanics, comprehension and vocabulary building. All students identify goals, build soft skills for employment while engaged in academic studies.
