COVID-19 Resources for Online Education
As our city faces the unprecedented challenge of the Covid-19 pandemic, Houston area adult literacy programs must close their doors temporarily, and adult learners must continue their education from their homes.
In response, our partners and friends in adult literacy and educational technology have shared several free resources to facilitate literacy provider programming of virtual lessons for their students and for adult learners to engage in learning at their own pace.
