25-26 Literacy Source Citizenship Support Member

This is AmeriCorps/Washington Service Corps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. Literacy Source provides free basic education to low-income adults in the Seattle area. We help the 1 in 6 adults in Washington state who lack basic literacy or language skills. Lack of proficiency keeps too many people from achieving their professional and personal goals. For over 36 years Literacy Source has provided free classes, tutoring, and learning resources. We help people learn English, study for their high school diploma or GED, gain work skills, or prepare to become citizens. We develop individual educational plans to meet our students' unique needs. Students then continue with tailored instruction, encouragement and support throughout the program year. Last year we provided over 46,000 hours of instruction for over 500 adult learners. Our students speak more than 50 languages and represent 65 nations. The member will support our work by teaching classes and supporting students and volunteers. We expect to begin rolling review of applications and interviews in late April. Monthly stipend amount: $2,438.
