Our Beginning

For thirty plus years, volunteers in Washington County have been involved in helping adults to improve their reading skills. The Community Reading Center and the Northwest Central Literacy Council were early leaders along with the support of the Literacy Council of Frederick County, Maryland in the effort.

In the spring of 2000, a group of concerned individuals made the decision to reactivate the Literacy Council of Washington County, Maryland. It is an official tax exempt organization recognized by ProLiteracy World Wide. A Board of Directors meets monthly at Trinity Lutheran Church in Hagerstown, Maryland and also maintains a staffed office.

There are approximately 90 certified tutors presently working with students in both the basic reading skills program and the ESL (English as a Second Language) program.
