Literacy Council of Carroll County, MD We have three classrooms available for sessions.

Our mission is to provide adult learners with free, confidential one-on-one tutoring to develop or improve their skills in English, reading, writing, math, and other subjects, enabling them to reach their personal goals. All of our tutors are dedicated and trained volunteers who are able to work with students in the mastery of a variety of subjects, ranging from the development of reading and writing skills to Pre-GED and Work Readiness courses.

We mourn the loss of Dolly Parton, a friend and champion of literacy.

💜 ProLiteracy mourns the loss of Dolly Parton, a true champion of literacy. Because her father was unable to read, she was dedicated to enriching lives and promoting family literacy through her Imagination Library. As a result, millions of children and families have built a love of reading.
💜 Rest in peace, Dolly.
