Help Refugees and Immigrants Learn English! (in-person)

Help teach adult immigrants or refugees to learn English. Meet people from the Twin Cities community and work with them as they build literacy skills and achieve their goals. Many of our students have limited computer skills, so we are seeking volunteers to assist in the classroom to build community and communication skills. Sound like something you're interested in?
