Memphis Parent: Share Your Skill

“Everyone has a skill or a talent,” says Lee Chase, Adult Program Coordinator at Literacy Mid-South. “Everybody's good at something and everybody has something that they are proud of. There seems to be a stigma that if adults don’t have literacy skills, they are lacking.”

Literacy Mid-South is running a campaign till the end of this year to address the stigma attached to low literacy for adults. The “Share your Skill” campaign wants to promote adults’ skills and talents by hosting “Share your Skill” stations at two different libraries per month and at other community places/special events.
