Rhode Island Family Literacy Initiative - RIFLI

We are so happy to celebrate another RIFLI student passing her US Citizenship exam. Maria's daughter wrote us saying: "I would like to thank you and the entire team that helped my mother prepare for her citizenship interview during the last 4 months. Today, thanks to God and to all of you, she went to her interview and passed! Every day my mom had one of you on the phone for hours, helping her practice each question and her answers. I want to end by thanking teachers Eva & David, and volunteer Cindi in a special way for all the effort they made to prepare my mother for her interview. It is not easy to take hours of your precious time to help others in a selfless way. Hopefully, many more people in the state of Rhode Island can benefit from this excellent program that helps people like my mom get better opportunities and that provides security and confidence to all immigrants."
