MISSION

The mission of the Literacy Council of Sarasota, Inc., a not-for-profit educational organization, is building a more literate community by helping adults and families improve English language communication skills through personalized, needs-based tutoring.

Since 1978, LCS has been achieving its mission by:

• Teaching through one-on-one and small group tutoring that enables adults to acquire reading, writing, speaking, and comprehension skills to meet the demands of daily life, to improve their potential for fulfilling employment, and to enhance the quality of life for themselves and their families.

• Recruiting, training, and supporting tutors and other volunteers who perform the important LCS activities that result in a more literate Sarasota community.

• Raising community awareness so that cooperative efforts lead to increasing literacy and supporting the goals of the organization.

• Collaborating with other local, state, and national organizations to educate decision-makers, co-sponsor activities, and jointly work on projects relating to adult and family literacy.
