​Our Mission

Language is critical to a secure an independent life. English Language Learners In-Home Program's mission is to eliminate the barriers to social and economic opportunity for immigrants, refugees, and non-native English speakers. We are an all-volunteer organization committed to teaching English, U.S. citizenship preparation and high-school equivalency at no cost, for those in need, worldwide. 

​Since February 2004, our volunteer tutors have assisted more than 6,000 adult learners in becoming more secure and independent by learning to speak, read, write and understand English.
