Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Houston Center for Literacy strengthens providers of adult education who, in turn, provide necessary skills for underemployed citizens to fulfill their potential and become economically self sufficient.

HCL's goal is to raise the adult literacy rates in Houston. In FY 16/17, HCL helped to reach this goal by referring 1,907 students to Houston literacy providers, serving 26,188 students and recording 63,065 volunteer hours of service in Houston.
