Rishel Beacon Neighborhood Center - Adult Programs

Since its inception in 1998, the Rishel Beacon Neighborhood Center has provided educational and supportive assistance to adults. Our services, which are available at no charge, include English-as-a-Second Language (ESL), Graduate Equivalency Degree (GED) test preparation, computer classes, and a parenting support group.

Today, we serve over 150 adults each semester. We use nationally approved standardized testing, a solid curriculum, lots of class time and friendly activities to make sure learning is fun. Most classes are offered at night from 6-8pm, Monday through Wednesday. GED classes are also offered in the morning. For additional information, please contact Jose Piza at 303-727-5222.
