Literacy Centers


Early in 2004, P.W.P. began to investigate the possibility of creating an adult literacy program that would particularly target women in Haiti who must spend most of their day working in small markets to provide for their families. It is estimated that 80% of Haitians are functionally illiterate. The inability to read and write breeds incredible levels of low self-esteem, lack of self-respect and lack of respect from others who may have a level of education no matter how small. The obvious disadvantages of being illiterate, such as the handicaps it brings in marketing their goods and services pale in comparison to what it does to the spirit of that person who must choose the slavery of silence because they are bound by the shame of illiteracy. The voice of an illiterate person is not considered equal or valid.
