Coronavirus/COVID-19 Update
Though the coronavirus pandemic has put an unprecedented challenge before all of us, including the LVG community, we should all take pride in how we have collectively risen to that challenge by supporting one another, showing compassion, and never losing sight of LVG’s mission to provide free English literacy instruction to adults in Litchfield and northern Fairfield Counties so they can participate fully in the communities we share.
Our staff is busy maintaining communications with our students, tutors, and other partners, along with providing innovative and creative solutions in terms of virtual tutoring. They are also engaged in becoming familiar with our new online student data management system designed specifically for adult literacy teams; this new database will enable us to better track our students and tutors and assess their progress.
We are so thankful for your continued support and grateful to all those who are helping us continue to serve our students.
