Our goals are
to develop a stronger public

The History |
|
Literacy
Green Bay is our name as of
January 2008. We were founded in
1981 under our former name of Literacy Council
of Brown County in response to a need
for tutors to work with newly arrived
Southeast Asian refugees. The
all-volunteer program was later expanded
to include undereducated English
speaking adults, as well as students of
all ethnicities, and paid staff was
hired to provide the level of resources
necessary to support the organization's
goals. |
