The Mission imageThe Mission image
Our mission is to support the development of family literacy for children, youth, and adults by providing reading and writing skills, as well as workshops for artistic training. We will strive to build self-esteem, self-image, a positive attitude, a desire for excellence, cooperation, and group cohesiveness through our mentoring program and the ability to set goals with a ready-to-work emphasis on improving one's own life. Our Approach: Read & Rise & D.O.R.A.
Under the banner of Read & Rise, our main D.O.R.A. literacy program brings this mission to life. Through structured reading cohorts, writing instruction, and supportive mentoring—complemented by our enrichment workshops—we help every participant build the confidence to unlock their full potential.
