The Play It Safe program is designed for Pre-K through 12th Grade. Each grade level's interactive curriculum speaks to children in a way they can best learn and respond. It helps them recognize abusive behavior, even if it is someone they know and provides tools that children can use to be safe. 

Lubbock ISD and Frenship ISD schools are participating in the PLAY IT SAFE Program - VOLUNTEERS are needed to go into the schools and present the program to the students. Each presentation lasts about 45 minutes and includes an age appropriate script followed by a 10-20 minute movie.

***Volunteers will need to pass a three point background check and complete the volunteer training.***

PLEASE please consider signing up for this - the overall goal for this program is to prevent and to lessen the number of children being abused in our community!  

ONCE YOU SIGN UP YOU INFORMATION WILL BE SENT TO CHILDREN'S ADVOCACY OF THE SOUTH PLAINS.

Caring for up to 40 kids on our campus at any given time, basic supplies like paper towels are in high demand.  Help us restock our commissary and keep our campus clean.  Donations of paper towels can be dropped off at 4404 Idalou Rd.  Drive straight forward to the large parking lot and follow donation signs for guidance.  Call 806-762-0481 with any questions.  Thank you! 

Our Houseparents work hard day and night to make sure our kids receive the very best care. Cooking for a large group 3 times a day can get very tiresome. Making a meal, dessert, or giving them a gift card to a restaurant allows them to focus less on cooking and more on their relationships with the kids.

You can prepare a meal in our newly renovated kitchen using your own ingredients. Alternatively, you can bring a fully prepared meal for the children and their families to enjoy.

Our 35-year mission is straightforward: to develop and implement programs that promote literacy. We firmly believe that education and literacy levels underpin many contemporary challenges. Literacy significantly influences a wide array of socioeconomic issues, including incarceration rates, health outcomes, employment opportunities, and poverty levels. We are convinced that the most effective pathway to improving one's circumstances is through education, and we advocate for making this journey accessible, available, and free to all who seek it.

At Literacy Lubbock, we are dedicated to transforming lives and contributing to improving our world through the individuals within our community. We recognize that knowledge is power and are committed to disseminating it far and wide.

We're on the lookout for ABE (adult basic education) volunteers to help teach our adult students how to read!  You'll be working one-on-one with a singular student to help them learn how to read.  Whether they've never learned before or have dsylexic tendencies that have prevented them from getting it, we have specialized curriculum to help.

This opportunity is entirely flexible: you'll work with your student to set your own schedule.  Only want to meet once a week?  Done.  Want to meet up at a local Starbucks that's close to both of you?  Done.  You take the reigns and figure out a pace that works with you and your student.  And we provide all the support you'll need!

In today's world, reading is paramount.  From text messages to articles, from social media to newspapers, people need to read.  And you can help them achieve that goal.

Literacy Lubbock was established in 1989 as a local nonprofit dedicated to helping adults learn how to read.  Since then, we've helped more than 7,000 people in the Hub City learn how to read, get their GED, or learn English as a second language and we've distributed more than 50,000 children's books.   Our mission and goal is simple: to support and execute programs that enable people to become literate. 

Because at the end of the day, we believe education and literacy levels are the root cause for a lot of today's problems.  Literacy has a weighty impact on nearly every socio-economic issue plaguing us today, from prison rates, health, employment, poverty levels, and so on.  The surest way for a person to improve their circumstances is by improving their education, and we believe that journey should be accessible, available, and free to any who want it.

Literacy Lubbock is about changing lives and making our world a better place through the people who live here.  Knowledge is power.  And we're determined to share it.

Helping individuals earn their GED directly impacts their lives by opening up opportunities for higher education, better job prospects, and increased self-esteem. Volunteering as a GED tutor can be incredibly rewarding. Witnessing the progress and success of your students can bring a sense of fulfillment and pride. Increasing the number of individuals with GEDs in the community can lead to a more skilled and educated workforce, ultimately benefiting the local economy and society. Volunteering as a GED tutor can challenge you to step outside your comfort zone, learn new teaching methods, and gain a deeper understanding of different learning styles and backgrounds. Volunteering often provides opportunities to meet new people, including other volunteers, staff members, and students, which can expand your social and professional network.
