Mission
Statement
Seeds of Literacy is an educational
ministry begun in 1997 by the Congregation of St. Joseph, Cleveland,
under the guidance of founding Executive Director, Kathleen Kilbane,
CSJ. The project’s focus is to help adults in need of assistance in
reading, writing, and math to improve their ability to function, compete,
and advance in society in an atmosphere of Christian care and compassion.
How
The Program Works

to those who can benefit from the program. Before working with students,
