About Us

When an adult reaches out to ULA for tutoring, they are making a significant step toward success. We welcome and respect everyone’s need to feel safe and supported while they share their story with us. All services provided by ULA are FREE and available to the public. We are supported by generous grants, individual donations, fundraising activities, and thousands of volunteer hours.

Please join us! If you are interested in sharing your love of reading, writing and language with a motivated student, become a part of Ulster Literacy Association. Our community is filled with people who are life-long learners and mentors with something special to give – their love of language, caring for others, and real motivation to strengthen our community.
