Centro Latino De Educacion Popular (Latin American Popular Education Center) is a local business that offers comprehensive educational programs and services to the Latino community. They provide resources and support for adult literacy, with a focus on teaching non-literate Spanish-speaking adults to read and write effectively in Spanish through their online course called Leamos. This user-friendly digital learning tool allows learners to connect oral language skills with print skills in their native language before transitioning to English. With 43 lessons, Leamos takes students from low or non-reading skills to being able to read street signs, forms, and prescription labels. The course can be used at home or in a class setting with minimal support and is accessible on computers, tablets, and phones. Centro Latino De Educacion Popular also offers resources and training for educators, volunteer opportunities, and grants and funding options to support their mission of promoting adult literacy within the Latino community.
