The Further Education Society of Alberta’s (FESA) free literacy, parenting, and essential skills programs supports Calgary’s most vulnerable populations who face barriers such as low-literacy, poverty, single-parenting, recent immigration, and family violence. More than ever, our learners need support and connection to help them during this time of uncertainty and stress.

We are supporting families and kids by providing them with masks, sanitation materials, and literacy resources in all of our Family Learning Kits so that families can safely access vital literacy supports. Over the years, Kits have helped families through difficult situations like family separation and divorce, violence and abuse, and poverty. Kits can bring families joy through reading and playing during these stressful times.

With your support, we can ensure that our learners are not left behind because of the pandemic — that they stay connected to learning, and to each other.
