The revitalization of the Hempstead community is directly tied to the Adult and Community Education Program's
ability to offer residents, ages 21 and over, the literacy skills needed to successfully negotiate positive outcomes for
themselves and their children. Designed to meet the post-secondary education as well as the employment needs of
Hempstead residents, the Adult and Community Education Program offers traditional literacy classes (ESOL, GED, ABE, Citizenship), information and support services at various sites located throughout the community.
