Read Muskegon
Most of us can’t imagine what life would be like without the ability to read, but the fact is, tens of thousands of adults in Muskegon County can’t read well enough to fill out job applications, help their children with school work, or manage their health. Since 2005, Read Muskegon has been offering literacy tutoring and small group classes for adults and children throughout Muskegon County, including adults incarcerated in the county jail. By doing so, Read Muskegon is building healthier families, more productive workplaces, and stronger communities.
Come and join us for lunch and a presentation by Melissa Moore, Executive Director of Read Muskegon. Melissa will share what Read Muskegon is doing in our county to reduce illiteracy in Muskegon County.
What is their impact in a typical year? 250 adults received individualized instruction, 85 volunteers contribute over 2,700 hours of their time helping people read. 3,000 adults and children are reached through events and community outreach, 4,000 books and other resources are distributed to families and more!
