Description
Imagine for a moment: you arrive to apply for a job or take a family member to the
Emergency Room, and when someone hands you a form to fill out, you have no way
to do so because you can’t read it. This isn’t a hypothetical situation for thousands of
adults, native and immigrant alike, who live right here in Middle Tennessee. In “Literacy
Matters,” representatives of the Nashville Adult Literacy Council will discuss the
realities many of our fellow Nashvillians face every day and discuss ways that you can
become involved in helping this organization help others.
