The Community Learning Services program offers a variety of learning opportunities for community members that are individually tailored to meet the unique literacy goals of each learner. Community Learning works in partnership with formal academic learning providers such as Coast Mountain College and School District #54, as well as community program providers such as the Northwest Child Development Centre and SCSA’s English Language and Multicultural Services (ELMS).

Services include:
• Adult one-to-one tutoring
• Small-group life skills programs
• Drop-in literacy support services
• StoryWalk family literacy program
• Community literacy awareness, capacity building, and promotion of literacy issues
• Family literacy promotion and activities to help parents and children incorporate literacy into their daily lives

Adult One-on-One Tutoring

Do you have trouble reading and writing? Does someone you know find it hard to read or write? We can help. We provide free, confidential, one-on-one tutoring.

Skills Programs

  • knowing how to cook healthily on a budget?
  • finance and budgeting skills?
  • using a computer or smartphone?

Join one of our free small-group programs and improve your knowledge and skills in a fun, relaxed, and supportive atmosphere.

Drop-in Assistance

Do you need help filling in a form or doing an online application? Drop-in help is available. (You can also make an appointment to make sure we are available to assist you when you need it.)
