In San Francisco, an estimated 80,000 adults - one in every five - have limited reading and writing skills. Since 1983, Project Read, the adult literacy program of the San Francisco Public Library, has provided free one-to-one tutoring, instructional workshops, and ongoing support to help over 4,000 English-speaking adults improve their literacy skills and expand their lives. Each year, Project Read tutors contribute over 10,000 volunteer hours to create a more literate and participatory society.
