Description: One of the biggest initiatives in adult education at the national and state levels is Integrated English Literacy and Civics Education (IELCE). The primary objective of IELCE is to increase adult learners' English proficiency along with their economic and civic integration. In this workshop, we will look at various resources to help tutors support their students' development of the skills and knowledge needed to improve their financial literacy and broader civic engagement within our community. This workshop is geared toward helping all our students develop these skills, regardless of whether they are on a pathway to citizenship.
