Submit ReviewLiteracy is something many of us take for granted, and yet one in three people in Saskatchewan struggle when it comes to things like reading, writing, comprehension numeracy skills. At Foundations Learning and Skills Saskatchewan, a dedicated group of staff and volunteers is helping adults who want to improve their literacy skills for free.
Charlene Siwak is the Adult Literacy Coordinator at Foundations and sees the impact literacy has in our community. She takes listeners inside the Adult Literacy Programs offered by Foundations and why this work means so much to her in this episode.
I think it takes courage for people to admit when they need help and seek out resources that can help them achieve their goals, and when it comes to Foundations Learning and Skills, the goals it helps people reach revolve around literacy.
The organization, formerly known as READ Saskatoon, has been helping people 18 and over in Saskatoon and the province for decades achieve their learning goals.
Charlene Siwak and her colleagues work with learners from all walks of life in Saskatoon to help them reach their goals, and what I found so interesting in speaking with Charlene is just how unique it is working with adult learners compared high school or elementary school students.
She is passionate about making a difference in peoples’ lives and as you will discover in our conversation, loves working with adults to reach their education goals. I learned so much from Charlene in our conversation and I know you are going to as well.
