For Service Providers
If you are a service provider in the area who provides adult literacy, GED, ESL or equivalent services, help us help you! Add your organization to this directory of organizations that provide services in the Southside region for adults with low levels of literacy. The goal of this directory is to make it easier for people and organizations in the community to connect those in need with those with resources. This project is sponsored by the Southside Literacy Roundtable that consists of leaders in administration, education, libraries, and human and health services who are working to better serve adults with low levels of literacy and their families in our community.
