Adult Literacy Education

Fox Valley Literacy Education Programs

At Fox Valley Literacy, we are committed to providing free classes and tutoring for adult learners in essential areas: reading, writing, math, English language, civics & citizenship, digital literacy, and individual projects. We thrive solely on the support of volunteers and donors, enabling us to offer accessible education to everyone in the northeast Wisconsin counties of Outagamie, Waupaca, northern Calumet, and northern Winnebago.

​

We believe improving literacy is the foundation for a stronger community. By empowering adults with the skills they need, we foster personal growth, civic engagement, and economic stability. Together, we can create a brighter future for all.
