The Kenosha Literacy Council (KLC) is dedicated to improving literacy in Kenosha County. Kenosha County has from 18% to 20% of its adult population who are not able to read or write at or above the 4th grade level.

Illiteracy affects every Kenosha County resident as tax revenues are lost through unemployment and under-employment. The resulting poverty can adversely affect the quality of life of all residents and our community.

Since 1965, KLC has offered literacy services to adults, both native-born or those who have emigrated here. The Literacy Council provides free 1 to 1, individual and small class instruction to those who wish to improve their literacy skills in reading, writing and math. Citizenship classes are also offered on a routine basis. This in turn, will elevate the quality of their lives and families, as well as the quality of all of our lives in this community.

We truly thank you for your interest in the Kenosha Literacy Council. KLC hopes that this website will provide you with all the information you require. If you wish further information, please feel free to contact us or stop in to see what we do. You are always welcome.
