Can you imagine not being able to read the back of a medicine bottle, fill out a job application or talk with your child's teacher? In Union County, 26% of the adult population lives with these limitations every day. Literacy Volunteers of Union County is a volunteer-driven, non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the literacy of adults and their families in our community.
