What is the Community Resource & Learning Center?

The Learning Center was established in 2007. It provides 5 components of Family  Literacy: adult education, children’s education, parenting education, library,
and parent-and-child-together time.

The Community Resource and Learning Center, Inc. (The Learning Center) serves families in need living in Moline, IL, and its surrounding communities. Adult students participate with their children. Our families come from around the world.

Our goal is to assist participants to gain personal and academic growth, to become more job-ready, and to help their children in school.

The Learning Center provides educational, social, and emotional support to participants through a series of well designed programs. These are provided in a strong family-based setting. Among the programs offered are English as a Second Language and Adult Basic
Education for adults and developmental child care for their children.
