Literacy Volunteers of Northern New York will be granted over $40,000 from the 2012-2013 budget passed by the legislature, funding which Assemblywoman Addie Rusell (D-Carthage) believes is “crucial” for the community.
The money goes to literacy efforts in St. Lawrence, Jefferson and Lewis counties.
Russell said, “This funding will enable these organizations to continue providing essential literacy services to our community members.
“Literacy of Northern New York trains volunteers to work one-on-one with adults who need help with reading and writing in a variety of ways. Teaching someone how to read is one of the best ways to help them empower their lives and continue making positive changes. This funding is critical to provide individuals in our community with the skills they need to succeed,” Russell said.
