It’s Adult Education and Family Literacy Week and we celebrate our adult learners!

One of Monica’s goals when she joined Literacy NJ was to become more involved in her chid’s education. One of her proudest accomplishments was reading aloud to her daughter’s class. “I got nervous because it was the first book that I read in front of different people. The children were so happy with the story. The teacher said to me, ‘Good job.’ My daughter was excited, and she felt amazing.”
