Here are some nice photos of a few of our students at SVDP-ALC and our volunteer tutor, Dr. Kathleen "Kathy"Dunlap, MD. Kathy, who volunteers her time at least twice per week, has been helping our school now for about a year. She is a retired medical doctor who has been a great help to our students. Next to her is Aaron Hawthorne, one of her students, who is with Louisiana Green Corps and ARC of Greater New Orleans (affiliated with AmeriCorps). Aaron has just completed a term of service with Green Corps, and he received a certificate for his fine accomplishments. In the other photo are student Jor'dan Watson who is pursuing his GED and Sr. Silvia Rodriguez who is a Catholic nun from Mexico. Sr. Silvia is with an order of nuns who are nurses. She is improving her English language skills while helping the sick and needy in New Orleans with the Sisters of the Servants of Mary.

It's great to learn about the St. Vincent de Paul Adult Learning Center in New Orleans. There are lots of important tutoring and educational programs for students, but adults too-often get left behind even though they may not have been ready to learn earlier in their lives. Everyone deserves a chance.
