English Language Programs

It’s not just a language. English is the key to immigrants and refugees becoming successful workers, parents and community members. The Immigrant Learning Center takes a wholistic approach to teaching English with life skills, digital literacy, U.S. culture and even citizenship incorporated in free classes. Additional services like education and career advising are available to help students achieve their individual goals.
