The mission of the Alliance for Literacy is to increase the literacy rate in our area by promoting education for adults in basic skills, reading, English as a Second Language, and GED preparation, as well as aiding other organizations and individuals in their efforts to promote literacy. We are committed to breaking the cycle of family illiteracy in our community and believe that the greatest gift you can give a child is a parent who can read!

According to Statista, “In 2020, the mean earnings of individuals who had not graduated from high school were about $26,815 U.S. annually, compared to $39,498 among high school graduates and $73,499 among those with a bachelor's degree”.
To create pathways out of poverty for all Hall County residents, we know education is the KEY component to achieve this goal
Adults 16 years and older who have not graduated from high school, in basic literacy skills and provide instruction to prepare the students to successfully pass the GED test. The GED program also works to transition students into post-secondary education. Increased enrollment and completion of degrees, certifications, and training programs will further enhance income potential.
