ADULT LITERACY PROGRAM
One of the challenges faced by refugees coming to a new country is language. Although adult ESL classes are available in-person and online at community colleges and by non-profit providers in the valley, AMWA started its own Adult Literacy Program in 2021 because we recognized the need for:
-
More teachers speaking the native language of refugees
-
More female teachers to teach women
-
More online classes for women with young children at home
-
Small class sizes for effectiveness
Our program serves mostly working women, women homebound due to lack of transportation or have young children.
We also offer a class for males in evening.
Classes are online and 3 times a week.
Currently, we only have classes for Afghan refugees/asylees who have been in the US for less than 5 years.
