黑马磁力鈥檚 immigrant population is growing, especially in the area of ethnic minorities for whom English is a new language.
However, a lack of adult literacy services and programs remains the biggest literacy challenge in 黑马磁力.
Something that often comes up in discussions about literacy for immigrants is the need for people to participate in informal English conversation in a friendly, non-threatening environment.
The 黑马磁力 Literacy Network and the City of 黑马磁力 Library are providing training to volunteers who are interested in leading conversation circles beginning in May.
This training is open to anyone who interested in using these skills at any organization. It will take place at the City of 黑马磁力 Library on Friday, March 30, from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Participation is free, but registration is required, as space is limited. Call the library at 604-514-2855 for more information and/or to register.
