Adult learners come to Literacy NJ for free ESL, GED, U.S. Citizenship and Basic Literacy classes because literacy will help them obtain a better job, a high school diploma, citizenship, or the confidence to speak to a doctor, teacher or neighbor. 

Ana received her GED this month and said in a speech to her classmates, “This is a new beginning for us. It will open the door to better opportunity and personal growth, and I see a bright future for you and for me. Most importantly, it proves that it is never too late to believe in yourself again!”.

We need your help to continue meeting the needs of our 1,808 students and to continue training and supporting more than 400 tutors. Thousands of personal and professional goals are met by our students each year. Help us meet our goal – in three short days – and continue empowering our adult learners.

Let's do this together!
