Lunch Meeting May 14: English Language Literacy at Neighborhood House

Please join us at the InterContinental Hotel in Saint Paul on May 14th as we hear from fellow Saint Paul Rotarian, Nancy Brady and her colleague Nick Contreraz of Neighborhood House.

Furthermore, English language literacy is one of the core foundations of this programming.
