Family Literacy
Florence County Adult Education offers Family Generational Literacy Services at two sites: Florence, and Lake City. These services are designed to support parents as their child’s first and best teacher. Any adult education student with one or more children ages 0-8 years old may participate. There are four components to Generational Family Services:
- Adult Literacy - Parent education
- Training for Parents to Teach and Care for Children
- Parent-Child Educational Activities Together
- Early Childhood Services
- Adult Literacy
- Training for Parents to Teach and Care for Children
- Parent-Child Educational Activities Together
- Early Childhood Services
Adult Literacy
Parents are supported in their own education through classes in high school diploma, English as a Second Language, or high school equivalency diploma. As parents become more educated, they gain confidence and skills to better support their child’s learning. They also open up additional workforce opportunities.
Training for Parents to Teach and Care for Children
Parent-Child Educational Activities Together
Parents involved in Generational Family Services spend time playing with and reading to their children. For parents who have their children in the child development center onsite, they may spend part of their class-day doing this. Parents also spend additional time at home and they may also receive school district home visits that facilitate these activities as well.
Early Childhood Services
Both the Florence and Lake City sites offer onsite childcare and development during morning class times. Additional childhood services may also be available through community and school district service-agencies. Parents should work with the Generational Family Coordinator for their school site regarding possible available services.

Integrated Education and Training
What is an IET Program? IET programs offer innovative combinations of education and job skills training for adults at all skill levels, with the aim to enhance the learner’s potential for greater success in school and in the workforce. Adult learners are concurrently enrolled in two programs: basic education and industry-recognized training, which results in a credential or certification on completion. Learners receive support and contextualized instruction from adult education and workforce training partners to ensure they have the tools needed to successfully transition to college or to work.
