Adult Language and Learning

Adult Language and Learning

Adult Language and Learning has been serving the Chatham-Kent community since 1984, and the immigrants of the area since 1987.

Adult Language and Learning is funded by the Government of Ontario through the Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities and the Government of Canada through the Department of Citizenship and Immigration.

We are a not-for-profit registered charity organization.
