"The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows." -Sydney J. Harris
*UPDATE: Due to the statewide "Safer at Home" order, the RCLC office will be closed while Phase 2 is in effect. Distance tutoring is encouraged. We are still able to do volunteer intake and match new tutors up with students from our waiting list. Now is a great time to get started! If you need information about enrolling or volunteering, or have any other questions, staff are available by email: LHarry@rcliteracy.org or KScott@rcliteracy.org.
