Mission Statement
The Stateline Literacy Council Beloit - Inc. is a volunteer, non-profit, United Way-funded organization. Our mission is to help English and non-English speaking adults learn basic skills, especially reading, writing, and speaking English. All our services are free.
The Stateline Literacy Council recognizes that modern society often requires a higher level of literacy than achieved through the council's basic instruction. Therefore, the Council seeks to cooperate with other agencies in the community to further the education of its students.
To fulfill our mission, the Stateline Literacy Council will:
- Recruit and tutor adults in English reading, writing, and speaking, primarily on a one-on-one basis. Tutoring in basic math skills will also be provided if needed.
- Train and provide refresher training and inspiration for tutors, trainers, leaders, and writers.
- Network with other literacy agencies in the State of Wisconsin and with the Laubach USA programs through its Laubach Literacy Action.
- Promote interest and cooperative effort in the community through the activities of the Stateline Literacy Council and combined ventures with other agencies and organizations.
- When appropriate, work with entire families to improve basic skills, thus breaking the cycle of illiteracy.
