Did you know that 150,000 adults — or one in seven — in Maine cannot read this sentence?  They could not read the map to trace the Making Tracks 2007 team across Canada.  In America, 44 million Americans cannot read it as well.  These adults struggle to read on the job, at the doctor’s office or at home with their children.

Each day at LVGS, adults strive to face their literacy challenges — to better their lives, workplaces and communities.  Adults like Bruce Couture, who is an employee of the Portsmouth Naval Yard in New Hampshire, work with trained, volunteer tutors to meet their goals in reading, math, computers and other skills.

 “I tried everything else.  I put myself down for  so many years.  I am proving that is wrong.  In just two years working with my tutor at LVGS, I have increased my reading by two levels.” 

 Read more about Bruce and other adults in “Literacy Success Stories” on the next page.  To learn more about literacy, visit LVGS on the web at http://www.sanfordliteracy.org.
