The Nashville Adult Literacy Council's (NALC) mission is to help Nashville adults with the reading, writing, and English-speaking skills they need for the life they want. Learners at NALC reach their goals through literacy.

NALC seeks to increase community visibility and awareness, recruit more volunteers, and expand our capacity so we can diminish the need for a waiting list of learners, each of whom is eager to be served through our programs.

NALC's greatest need is for volunteer tutors for our English Language Learners and Literacy Learners. There are hundreds of people on our waiting list. Please reach out to NALC if you would like to volunteer or if you are aware of opportunities to share our message in the community through speaking engagements, community events, and media publications. A rise in volunteer recruitment is needed to help these students who are ready to learn. More information on tutoring and training schedules can be found at the link below.

In addition to volunteers, NALC's learners would benefit from additional funding. More donations to NALC help us to hire staff who can teach learners and train volunteers, exponentially increasing our scope and impact. NALC would love to expand the services we offer in the areas of greatest need for our community.
