Literacy Symposium at
Warkworth Literacy
Council

Warkworth Literacy Council in Campbellford, Ontario was the site of a very successful Literacy Symposium last September. Outside guests were welcomed, many of them being teachers from other Ontario prisons, to view a presentation of speakers dedicated to literacy and the learning disabled. Officials from both National and Regional Headquarters, who pride themselves in being in the educational end of corrections, attended and participated in the presentation.

In conjunction with the Symposium, a basic literacy tutor workshop was held for new members, facilitated by Laubach trainers Lana Faessler and Bev Clarke. Several of these newly trained tutors have now been paroled and some have stepped into executive positions in the group becoming the nucleus of the future for Laubach literacy at the Warkworth Institution.

Council members were pleased to welcome back for the second year in a row Laubach Literacy Ontario's Provincial President, Myles Gallant. With the assistance of his Vice-President, Howard Lane, certificates were presented to a number of tutors. Also in attendance was Student Representative to both the provincial and national Laubach Boards, Arnie Stewart, who spoke to the audience from a student's perspective.

Members of the Warkworth Literacy Council are looking forward to hosting another symposium in 2003.

Welcome!
