The Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS) Program is designed to provide individualized assistance to adult learners who are seeking to improve their reading, writing, math, employability or computer skills.

Each learner will develop a personal training plan and set personal goals. Learners will develop sufficient skills to pursue further education in a high school credit course, gain everyday skills for independence or acquire the essential skills necessary for employment.
