In response to the recent state of emergency regarding the COVID-19), the Charles County Literacy Council will follow announcements from Governor Larry Hogan, the Maryland Dept. of Health, the Charles County Dept. of Health and the Charles County Public Schools. As precaution for all we are suspending tutoring until further notice. Our Program Coordinator will be teleworking from March 17 through April 24. She will be available through email during our regular office hours, Monday - Thursday, 9:30 am - 1:30 pm. Our email is charlescountyliteracy@comcast.net.  As you read this, please remember that there are those who cannot.  Literacy Does Matter.

Next CCLC meeting -- March 3, 7 pm. at the United Way House.  Join us -- find out about CCLC,  ask questions, seek advice.

Welcome to new tutors

Thank you and welcome to our new tutors from Saturday's workshop -- Jenifer, Monica, Helen and Mary Elizabeth. They truly learned the positive impact they will have in someone's life -- not to mention truly understanding what it means for those who cannot read or "can" read but simply don't understand what they are reading. When someone says to you, can you read this to me, I forgot my glasses, there is the possibility that it truly means: can you read this to me because I can't read it.

Our next workshop will be in the Spring. If you and your organization may be interested in outreach and becoming tutors, we can bring our workshop to you. Just give us a call -- 301-934-6488.
