You should be able to send her to the Adult Education Center in the county
where she lives, as they should be able to help her with literacy skills.
Study times are usually set up so that they have a one on one relationship
and privacy from other students. Volunteers are often used with low literacy
level students, meetings can be at the library or any other place both feel
safe and comfortable.

Subject: [FocusOnBasics] non-reader who wants info on adult ed


Dear Friends:
 
Do you have any advice for me to share with an adult non-reader(native
English speaker) who is interested in obtaining information about basic
reading and writing? A woman called me the other day and she is interested
in educating herself and supporting her children's emerging literacy skills.
I can help her out in relation to children's literacy, but wasn't sure where
to send her for adult education information, as she has very low literacy
skills.
