“There was time for a change and the time was now. So I jumped in to make a change.” – Ryan Springer In the United States, where one in five adults struggle with low literacy skills, this silent population goes largely unnoticed. That is why VALUE helps give a voice to adult learners. Ryan Springer became much more than an adult learner. He became an advocate, helping other adults become learners and advocates too. Here is his remarkable story.
VALUE knows that helping to empower adult learners is one of the best ways to improve our nation’s literacy rate because we know that when adult learners become literacy leaders ... entire communities benefit, as Ryan's community has.
Everyday in all fifty states, in rural communities, suburbs and large cities, adult learner leaders like Ryan show us what is possible with the right help at the right time.
