Small Group Instruction
Literacy Council's small group instruction classes, led by a ProLiteracy-trained instructor, are held at The Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center campus, Sarasota County libraries, or onsite at local schools, employers, or another nonprofit agency’s location. Classes are for up to 12 adult learners and typically meet once or twice a week for 60-90 minutes.
One-On-One Tutoring
ProLiteracy-trained volunteer tutors work with individual adult learners in one-on-one tutoring sessions with a focus on the learner’s educational goals including GED preparation, adult basic education in reading, writing and math, English as a second language, and citizenship. Tutors typically meet in a public place such as a library, a minimum of once a week for 90 minutes.

Real estate is one of the greatest costs in a business budget. Our partnership with The Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center allows more money to go towards our mission. And what better place to house our office than on a campus with nineteen other outreach agencies.
Collaboration is key to the success of our work. The Campus of Caring is a unique space where we can easily join forces with other agencies to make the best use of our resources and maximize our community impact. The affordable rent allows us to allocate more funds to our mission of transforming the lives of students and their families.
As a small organization with a staff of two, employee safety was a big consideration when we were looking for office space. We did not want our employees to be in a place where they were alone. Being on the GSHSC campus has been great because there is a whole community of like-minded professionals.
