Since 1974, Literacy New York (LNY) has provided workshops and technical assistance to help volunteer organizations develop program and organizational capacity. Currently, LNY and its nationally accredited network of 36 local, community-based affiliates throughout New York State (excluding New York City) provide high quality, one-to-one, and small group tutoring to low level reading, math and English as second language students.
