Picking an Orange Book

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.

Note:  There is a long waiting list.  Once class becomes available, our Admin will contact you.
