The YMCA International Learning Center

YMCA International Learning Center (ILC) has taught English to immigrants and refugees since 1975, enhancing English literacy for families and adults and aiding New Americans in understanding American schools and workplaces. The classes are in classes with teachers at home and businesses in more than one. ILC offers services to immigrants and refugees at English proficiency levels ranging from the college level to zero.
