A classroom is more than just four walls. It is a place where confidence is rebuilt, opportunities begin, and lives change.

Last week, we came together to celebrate the naming of the Ivy Abrams Classroom, where adult learners will strengthen their
reading, writing, and comprehension skills. For many students, taking that first step into a classroom again can feel overwhelming. But spaces like this help create encouragement, dignity, support, and hope.

You can support us in continuing this mission. Head to literacychicago.org to get involved today.
