Welcome

Literacy Volunteers of Franklin & Somerset Counties offers an 18 hour workshop to train tutors to help those who need to improve their reading skills. This is done on a one-to-one basis, is confidential and free of charge. We tutor both adults and children, and work closely with the Adult Basic Education programs in both counties. Literacy Volunteers has a teen tutoring program which trains older children to work with younger students in the schools.
