The Nashville Volunteer Literacy Program [NVLP] teaches U.S.- born adults to read and teaches English to adult immigrants. Volunteer tutors are recruited, trained, and matched with adult learners based on schedules and location preference. In addition, small group instruction and specialized classes are provided as needed.

If you can read this and can spare three hours per week, you can help. Volunteer Literacy always needs volunteer tutors. Please call for more information.

NVLP is a collaboration between the Community Education Alliance, Metro Schools, and the Nashville Adult Literacy Council [NALC], the non-profit funding arm of Volunteer Literacy. Major sponsors have included the United Way, Metro Council, Dollar General, Caterpillar Financial, Memorial Foundation, and HCA Foundation.
