About Us
Our Mission
The mission of the Whittier Area Literacy Council is to build a stronger, more literate community by connecting those who can help with those who need it the most. Our trained community volunteers provide free individualized tutoring in basic literacy and English as a Second Language for children and adults.
Our Core Values
- We believe that literacy is a human right and we invest our time, effort and skills into changing lives, one person at a time.
- We value the commitment of our tutors and the persistence of our students.
- We are bound together by the belief that we can help children succeed in school and empower adults to fulfill their life goals.
