Adult Education

Adult Education and Job Development is a special project of Community Action designed to build upon the other services offered by the agency. The instructional and supportive services help individuals acquire the skills necessary to become economically self-reliant and thus enhance the family situation.

Learning is a life long journey. In our program, instructors assist adult students in determining their educational needs, in setting goals, and in taking the necessary steps to improve their personal and family life.

The services provided include:

• Academic assessment and development of an educational plan
• Basic skills and GED instruction
• Job readiness instruction
• Instruction in basic life skills

Who's Eligible?

Eligibility for services is based upon each person's individual situation. To receive certain services, income may be a factor.
