For every 400,000 adults who earn a high school diploma, the economy gains $2.5 billion back in tax revenue and reduced expenses. That’s $6,250 per person! The estimated value to our economy in reduced costs for public support programs for low skilled, low literate adults is $200 billion annually. @COABEHQ #COABEontheHill2024 #AdultEdLiteracyWeek #AEFL2024 #AEFLWeek

Happy Adult Education and Family Literacy Week! In five years, nearly 80 percent of all job openings will require more than a high school degree. Adult education provides a significant opportunity to bridge the workforce supply-and-demand gap. In order to help bridge that gap, the LAUSD Division of Adult and Career Education offers over 36 unique career pathways in industries such as allied health, construction, IT, cosmetology and more! @COABEHQ #COABEontheHill2024 #AdultEdLiteracyWeek #AEFL2024
