Augustine ProjectWorking with children to break the non-reader cycle.The Literacy Council is currently working with The Augustine Project based at Holy Family Episcopal Church in Chapel Hill, NC, to replicate their program in Asheville. The Augustine Project targets low-income children and teens who struggle with literacy skills. The project trains volunteer tutors and professional educators in the foundations of literacy using the Orton-Gillingham approach and Wilson Reading System curriculum. The August Project in Chapel Hill has seen tremendous success in increasing literacy levels of K-12 students by providing free, long term, one-to-one instruction.

At the Literacy Council, one size does not fit all. We meet our students where they are today and tailor our programs to fit individual needs. |
