illiteracy cycle eyed by Aiken Adult Education chief
Owen Clary, director of Adult Education in Aiken County, links illiteracy to illegitimacy. He cites a case of a pregnant 14 year old and a teen mother of four, stressing the cycle and the need to break it. The program offers free one to one tutoring, with 200 volunteers, aiming to raise learners to eighth and twelfth grade levels and provide GED and continuing education options. Funding remains limited and unfunded by state plans, despite rising enrollment.
