Welcome to Literacy Pittsburgh

Literacy Pittsburgh offers free educational programs for adults and families in Allegheny County and Beaver County. Last year, we helped nearly 3,700 people in the Greater Pittsburgh area improve their reading, writing, math, English language, digital literacy, and workplace skills. Adult literacy classes and tutoring move students from learning to earning and help them succeed as workers, parents, and neighbors.

Partner Spotlight: WQED

WQED and Literacy Pittsburgh began a collaboration last summer to create learning experiences for families to expand their knowledge about science. The partnership was established to bring WQED’s “PBS Kids Family Engagement” opportunities to the students and families of Literacy Pittsburgh, as part of its mission to broaden the awareness of the free and fun learning opportunities that are available both online and in the community.
