Connecting Learners to Social Services

As you start the school year with adult learners, you may need to refer them to other service providers. This service provider resource available across the state.

The Orange County Public Library received a Library Service and Technology Act Grant to develop this and expand it across the state.  United Way Providers are good resources for referrals.


Providing connections to social and community services are an important part of a successful volunteer adult literacy program, and these services are becoming harder and harder to access.  As Florida continues to close government offices, libraries and information and referral provider are filling the void.

Find out if you have an Information and Referral provider or the location of  your closest library  to learn about your community's social services.  All volunteer literacy programs should share this information to their tutors and students with-in workshops and via tools like Facebook, Twitter, E-mail and more.
