A $203,400 Ontario government grant will permit the Tri-County Literacy Council’s (TCLC) expansion over the next three years to meet the growing demand for its services in Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry.
Through this funding, the Ontario government is enabling TCLC to continue matching ESL learners with trained volunteer tutors, train an additional 10 to 15 tutors annually, provide culturally relevant, employment-focused language training, and support at least 95 additional learners over the next three years. “This funding allows us to continue offering a program that is truly changing lives,” said Angela Vinet, Executive Director of TCLC. “We are seeing newcomers gain confidence, pursue education, and move toward meaningful employment. This investment strengthens not only individuals, but our entire community.”
“Increasing literacy is crucial to building a stronger economy and a stronger community,” said Nolan Quinn, MPP for Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry. “Our government’s investment in the Tri-County Literacy Council will ensure more learners across SDG have the skills they need to thrive both personally and professionally.”
