How to Volunteer:

There are thousands of adults in Cambria County who cannot read well enough to:

• Follow simple directions
• Fill out application forms
• Read road signs
• Understand bank statements
• Follow directions on medicine bottles
• Read labels on food products
• Read a newspaper
• Order from a menu

You can help! You don’t need any special skills or background to become a volunteer tutor. No previous teaching experience is required. All it takes is an hour a week and a real desire to help someone else. The Literacy Council provides tutors with the manuals and workbooks to help an adult learn to read.
