Adult Education
Together, we are supporting immigrants as they grow in their English language skills.
Learning English – a gateway to life in the U.S. – is a critical part of the journey for refugees and other immigrants.
Without basic English language skills, they are unable to access the resources and services that help them navigate daily life in the U.S. and economic opportunities are drastically limited creating a barrier to flourishing in their new country.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
When you give today, Immigrants throughout the community are able to:
Discover Literacy
Many immigrants come not having literacy in their own language. We make sure to build the foundation of literacy so their learning can succeed exponentially.
Grow Their Stability
Learning English is not just about mastering a new language – it’s about unlocking the tools to navigate an entirely new world. As English fluency increases, opportunities to grow in careers and comfort interacting in the community do as well.
Build Flourishing Lives
Support for English classes is more than a gift – it’s an investment in economic mobility. 45% of students in our beginner-level classes live at or below the poverty line. By the time they reach Level 5, that number drops to just 4%
With over 45 years of experience educating tens of thousands, World Relief Chicagoland provides English language programming with excellence and joy in Christ for the life, work, and community needs of our immigrant neighbors. We do this to support healthy integration, healing, and thriving, so that Christ’s love and compassion might be seen more fully in the way we work, teach, and befriend. We invite you to join us.
