Laubach
Literacy New Brunswick (LLNB)
Vision & Core Values
Laubach Literacy New Brunswick is a volunteer
nonprofit organization, dedicated to the development and support of our
affiliated literacy councils. We provide a mutually supportive and positive
working environment, promoting an atmosphere of trust and equality. Through the
promotion of the Each One Teach One philosophy, we strive to meet changing
literacy needs. The Each-One-Teach-One methodology, originated in 1930, is now
used successfully in over 300 languages around the world.
Organizational History & Structure
LLNB was registered as a nonprofit,
charitable organization in 1975, with a primary goal of tutoring adult
non-readers one-to-one. We currently have 18 active councils with more than 450
trained tutors. Laubach volunteers contribute thousands of hours annually in
literacy-related work, enriching the lives of individuals and families, and
also benefitting communities, social service systems, and NB’s economic
vitality.
Presidents of
each of the community-based Laubach councils comprise our Board of Directors.
LLNB exists primarily to pool resources for services such as advocacy, tutor
training, board development, public relations & program promotion,
volunteer & student recruitment, fund-raising, student development
workshops, and such.
