Citizenship Specialist Speaks About Our
Inspired Citizenship Program Now Being Virtual
According to the U.S. Census, nearly
1-third of Azusa residents were born outside the United States. The goal of our
Inspired Citizenship program is to empower our community and encourage stronger
civic participation for all City of Azusa residents. The immigrant community
often faces barriers to citizenship, due to low or interrupted education levels
and limited English proficiency.
Created by the Azusa City
Library, Inspired Citizenship is a program to help adults prepare to become
United States citizens. The library offers:
weekly classes
study materials
1-on-1 coaching
special information workshops to help you and your family achieve your dreams of becoming U.S. citizens
Due to COVID-19, our weekly classes have
transitioned into a virtual service. The Azusa City Library is now offering
Citizenship Classes through Zoom on the following days:
Tuesdays: 9 am (English/ Bilingual)
Wednesdays: 9 am (Spanish)
To request more information, please contact Joyce Ayala at (626) 812-5273
The Adult Literacy program has developed
a podcast of quick, insights into our tutor programs. The following episodes
