    About Us

    Project CARE (Community Adult Reading Experience) is Morton College’s volunteer adult literacy program. We use trained literacy tutors to teach adult students seeking assistance with reading and writing, and/or adults who are learning English as a Second Language. Tutoring services are FREE and are available to all eligible students. Project CARE was founded in 1986 and is grant funded by the Illinois Secretary of State.

    We serve the communities of Berwyn, Cicero, Stickney, Lyons, Forest View, McCook, and the surrounding areas, including Chicago.
