Three adult learners from Sonoma County Library's Adult Literacy program attended this year’s Adult Learner Leadership Institute (ALLI) training held in Chico, California in May. 

ALLI is a statewide training program that offers weekend-long workshops for adult learners. The workshops focus on the development of leadership skills in networking, advocacy, public speaking and giving presentations. Adult learners who are enrolled in a CLLS library literacy program for at least six months can apply to attend ALLI. The goal of ALLI is to empower the adult learners by helping bring out their leadership skills, strengthen them and apply those skills to help themselves, their library and their community.

These three members of our community who attended ALLI in 2018 will bring back awesome skills and learning to share with others.  Kudos to Ako, Irma and Misty for being selected to attend this training, and for all the hard work you've done to get where you are today!
