Onslow Literacy Council Inc.

Onslow Literacy Council Inc. The Executive Board has made the incredibly tough decision to close the Onslow Literacy Council on December 31, 2025.

Permanently closed.

We encourage everyone to reach out to the Careret Literacy Council. Their contact information has replaced ours. Onslow Literacy Council began several years ago by a few people within Jacksonville who shared a common passion: a love of reading and a desire to improve literacy rates within the community. Since then, our organization has expanded, reaching people within Onslow County and even surrou

nding areas. Our volunteer tutors and board work tirelessly to ensure that the joy of literacy is available to all citizens of Onslow County ages sixteen and higher. In addition to basic reading and phonics, the council also tutors ESOL, pre-high school equivalency, college writing and literature, citizenship studies, and basic math. All materials are provided free to both tutors and students, and our board is active year-round in multiple fundraising events and outreach programs. To apply as a tutor or student or learn more about our organization and sponsorship program, please contact the main office at (910) 353-0831 or email us at [email protected].
