Literacy
Volunteers - HBPL, was founded by Linda D. Light in 1984. This group of
outstanding people is the volunteer arm of the Huntington Beach Library Adult
Literacy Program. The library staff trains volunteers to tutor adults in
reading and writing. The staff evaluates students and matches them with trained
tutors. Prospective students must speak English. Our students say the program
helps them be better parents, improve their work skills, and have better lives.
More than
400 students and tutors currently participate in the program, and tutors are
always needed. Literacy Volunteers - HBPL, an accredited affiliate of
ProLiteracy America, is run by a 15-member Board of Directors.
We have
two programs, the Adult Literacy Program at Central Library (714) 375-5102 and
the Oak View Literacy Program at the Oak View Branch Library (714) 375-5104. We
always need tutors!
