Topeka Literacy Council

Topeka Literacy Council Topeka Literacy Council, founded in 1967, helps adults learn to read and write to improve their econo Topeka Literacy Council is staffed entirely by volunteers.

As a member of ProLiteracy America (www.proliteracy.org), our motto is "Each One Teach One." One tutor is matched with one student. Tutoring occurs in an individualized, private setting, not a group or classroom setting. There is no charge for tutoring services. We ask that students purchase their books (usually $11-$15 per book) if they are able to do so. TLC does not identify, diagnosis, or treat learning disabilities.
