About LVOC
In 1985 Literacy Volunteers of America, Inc. granted full affiliate status to its offspring partner in Oswego County, NY. Literacy Volunteers of Oswego County (LVOC) was nurtured as a non-profit community-based educational organization and has continuously provided quality tutoring in basic literacy skills and conversational English. In June of 1993, the affiliate became an autonomous organization, breaking away from SUNY Oswego, who had served as its parent and fiscal agent since its birth. On July 19, 1994, LVOC was granted corporation status under section 402 of the Non-For-Profit Corporation law. STAFF:
The Executive Director manages LVOC and oversees the daily operation of all programs, administration, and fund development activities. A volunteer board of directors, representing a broad spectrum of professionals from the education and business sectors, is charged with establishing policy for program management and accountability. A program committee, subject to the advisement of the board, exists as the working arm of the organization. The committee is responsible for the development and implementation of the organization’s program priorities through annual program objectives.
LVOC is funded through the NY State Education Department, the United Way Foundation, fund raisers, donations, and grants.
