ABOUT US

40+ Years of Free Literacy Programming
The South Shore Literacy Council has been providing non-profit literacy services since 1980.
In those 40+ years, we have championed literacy tutoring, activities tailored for intellectually disabled adults,
a weekly pre-literacy music program for young families, and inclusive programming for seniors.
