Volunteers Needed For Pleasanton Library’s Literacy Program

From the City of Pleasanton: Pleasanton Library’s Literacy Program needs patient, caring volunteer tutors to help adults practice and improve their English reading, writing, and conversation skills.

Volunteers work one-on-one with students, or lead small group conversation practice, citizenship test preparation, or book clubs.

The Literacy Program provides all books and materials as well as training and ongoing support.
The next training event will take place on Saturday, March 2, from 1- 4 p.m. in the Library meeting
room. No advance preparation is needed.
