Does anyone know where I can obtain information that clearly states how
literacy tutoring and/or a literacy program (for adults) directly benefits a
local community? I found numerous statistics on the NIFL website, but am
looking for a more definitive statement instead of numbers. I know a
community "benefits as a whole" through a more literate society, I'm just
searching for some general reasons why. 

Thanks in advance for any information provided.
