Get started now on a brighter tomorrow
The
CCLC offers a variety of opportunities for adults who want to improve
their literacy skills in order to get ahead in life or on the job.
Classes are available at no cost to Chatham County residents.
Adult Basic Education
Adults who
cannot read, write or do math well enough to reach their goals enroll
in our Adult Basic Education (ABE) program. Some of our students are
striving to get a job or a promotion. Some are working toward a general
education diploma (GED) so that they can go on to college. Others
simply want to help their children with homework, be able to read a
prescription or do everyday tasks more effectively. Whatever the
student hopes to achieve, we can help.
One-on-one
tutoring sessions are available at sites across Chatham County. For
more details or to request an assessment, go to our Student FAQ page. To apply to become a student, complete this form and email it to us at admin@chathamliteracy.org.
English as a Second Language
Those who
speak a language other than English can learn to maneuver more
successfully through daily life by participating in our English as a
Second Language (ESL) program. Students learn to understand, read,
write and speak English in a comfortable, small-group setting or in
one-on-one tutoring sessions. Our ESL program also includes classes for
U.S. citizenship. To apply for our free citizenship classes, please complete this form and email it to admin@chathamliteracy.org.
We
currently
offer small-group ESL/Citizenship preparedness classes at CCCC-Siler City Center, at
Roca Fuerte Church, and at North Chatham School. One-on-one
ESL tutoring is
available at sites throughout the county. For more details or to
request an assessment, see our Schedule and Student FAQ pages.
