IRS990/Description0FIRST LITERACY BELIEVES THAT ACQUIRING BASIC EDUCATION IS THE FIRST STEP MANY ADULTS MUST TAKE TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVES, THEIR COMMUNITIES, AND THEIR CHILDREN'S FUTURE. OUR STRENGTH IS OUR EXPERTISE IN THE FIELD OF ADULT BASIC EDUCATION. WE SERVE AS A VEHICLE FOR THOSE WISHING TO SUPPORT ADULTS' EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THEIR LIVES THROUGH EDUCATION. WE TAKE A MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH TO OUR WORK. FIRST, WE WORK DIRECTLY WITH THE COMMUNITY-BASED ABE PROGRAMS THAT OFFER CLASSES AND SERVICES FREE OF CHARGE TO THESE MOTIVATED RESIDENTS. SECONDLY, WE PROVIDE PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE TO OUR PARTNER-PROGRAMS. AND LASTLY, WE AWARD SCHOLARSHIPS AND PROVIDE MENTORS TO ADULTS WHO HAVE GRADUATED FROM AN ABE PROGRAM AND ARE CONTINUING ON TO COLLEGE OR ADVANCED SKILLS TRAINING.1) FIRST LITERACY AWARDED GRANTS FOR SPECIFIC PROJECTS TO 19 COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS IN FY 2013. GRANTS AWARDED RANGE IN AMOUNTS FROM $5,000 TO $15,000 AND TOTAL $239,000. TOGETHER THE PROJECTS INVOLVE 1,200 LEARNERS AND INCLUDE CORE ABE CLASSES SUCH AS BASIC LITERACY AND ESOL, AS WELL AS CLASSES THAT GO BEYOND THE SCOPE OF CORE ABE CLASSES, PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATIONS IN HEALTH AND WELLNESS, LEARNING STRATEGIES, AND ORAL PRESENTATION SKILLS. FIRST LITERACY ALSO SUPPORTS THE USE OF ADULT PEERS AS MENTORS AND EDUCATORS, WORKING AS TEACHERS' AIDES, TUTORS, AND TEACHERS. BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THE CHALLENGES THAT COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS FACE IN PROVIDING SERVICES, FIRST LITERACY'S GRANTS ALSO INCLUDE CRUCIAL SUPPORT FOR SERVICES SUCH AS EDUCATIONAL, CAREER AND PERSONAL COUNSELING, AND CHILD CARE. PUBLIC FUNDING IS OFTEN UNAVAILABLE FOR SUCH SERVICES; HOWEVER WITHOUT THEM MANY ADULT LEARNERS WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN OR COMPLETE CLASSES. 2) PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IS A CRITICAL PART OF OUR WORK AND TAKES THE FORM OF SITE VISITS TO OUR PARTNER-PROGRAMS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS OFFERED TO ALL LITERACY PROGRAMS IN THE AREA. DURING THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, MICHAEL FEHER, OUR DIRECTOR OF PROGRAMS, CONDUCTED SITE VISITS TO THE PROGRAMS THAT RECEIVE FUNDING, OFTEN WITH A MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY ADVISORY COUNCIL, BOARD, OR STAFF. WHETHER IT WAS FEEDBACK ON A CLASS OBSERVED, THE SUGGESTION OF TEACHING APPROACHES, OR ADVICE ON PROGRAM EVALUATION AND PLANNING FOR PROGRAM DIRECTORS, WE PROVIDED REGULAR SUPPORT TO PROGRAMS SO THEY MIGHT CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE THEIR CLASSES AND SERVICES. FOR THE SECOND YEAR, FIRST LITERACY HOSTED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS. OVER 100 ADULT EDUCATION PROFESSIONALS, INCLUDING PROGRAM DIRECTORS, TEACHERS, COUNSELORS, AND COORDINATORS, FROM MORE THAN 30 PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT NEW ENGLAND, ATTENDED OUR WORKSHOPS IN FY 2013. ON AVERAGE, THESE ADULT EDUCATORS SERVE 52 STUDENTS PER YEAR. NOT ONLY ARE WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THE PROFESSIONAL LIVES OF ADULT EDUCATORS, WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF 5,000 STUDENTS WHO BENEFIT FROM THEIR IMPROVED SKILLS AND RENEWED PASSION FOR THEIR WORK.3) IN JUNE, FIRST LITERACY SELECTED THE RECIPIENTS OF THE SCHOLARSHIPS WHICH IT GIVES ANNUALLY TO ADULTS CONTINUING THEIR EDUCATION AT LOCAL COLLEGES OR SKILLS TRAINING FACILITIES. WE AWARDED FIRST YEAR SCHOLARSHIPS TO TEN AND CONTINUING SCHOLARSHIPS TO FOUR ADULTS AT AN ON-FIELD EVENT PRIOR TO THE JULY 22 RED SOX GAME AGAINST THE TAMPA BAY RAYS AT FENWAY PARK. THE SCHOLARSHIPS THAT FIRST LITERACY AWARDS TO ADULTS WHO HAVE COMPLETED BASIC EDUCATION OR ENGLISH LANGUAGE PROGRAMS AND ARE CONTINUING ON TO HIGHER EDUCATION, AND THE MENTORING THAT IS PROVIDED TO FIRST YEAR SCHOLARS, ARE AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT OF OUR PROGRAM WORK. THROUGH THESE AWARDS, FIRST LITERACY IS CHANGING LIVES.SET FORTH BELOW ARE EXAMPLES OF THE PROGRESS MADE BY STUDENTS IN CLASSES SUPPORTED BY FIRST LITERACY IN 2013:645 ADULTS MADE MEASURABLE EDUCATION PROGESS539 DEMONSTRATED IMPROVED COMPUTER SKILLS18 OBTAINED THEIR GED OR HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA57 ENTERED SKILLS TRAINING PROGRAMS 49 ENTERED COLLEGE60 UPGRADED THEIR EMPLOYMENT201 ENTERED EMPLO
