LIFTED ~ Literacy
Training
East Hill Foundation Grant

A generous grant from the East Hill Foundation will fund a new and exciting
program for reading instruction. The LIFTED Program, Literacy Institute for
Training and Educational Development, will provide literacy training to tutors,
who will then work directly with a struggling reader in one on one instruction.
This tutor-training model will provide both training in reading  and assessment
to an adult who will continue to teach  and ongoing instruction to students.
