KEYNOTE SPEAKER OCTOBER 26, NADA JERKOVIC, MANAGER FAMILY & ADULT LITERACY AT CANLEARN

CanLearn is a multi-disciplinary organization with a vision of ‘unlocking potential so all can learn’ To fulfill this vision, the organization uses a two-pillar approach and provides:
*assessment and intervention programs for learning disabilities and ADHD
*Literacy programs for children, families and adults

Research indicates that 1 in 5 adults in Alberta lack basic literacy skills, and since adult learners are often embarrassed at their low literacy skills they often go to great lengths to hide their literacy challenge. Reaching them is often difficult.

CanLearn believes we can and must do better. Please come and hear what this tremendous organization is doing to transform lives through literacy.
