   The Literacy Connection, an affiliate of ProLiteracy America, Inc., is a non-profit,
     community-based organization helping local individuals acquire fundamental literacy
     skills.  Our small staff is aided by hundreds of caring volunteer tutors who unselfishly
     give their time and effort.  Since 1983, Literacy Connection programs have helped
     thousands of area adults and youth acquire the skills they need to realize personal success and
     become fully functioning members of society.
