Educate

The Dominican Center offers a personal, goal-directed, supportive environment in which Amani residents can reach their educational goals. Our adult education program offers three main focus areas:​

• Adult Basic Education: Tutors provide one-on-one academic support for students in the areas of reading, writing, math, computer literacy, and social studies.
• GED/HSED Preparation Classes: MATC staff partner with Dominican Center tutors to provide classes to adults to learn basic academic skills necessary for a referral to the General Education Diploma (GED) or High School Equivalency Diploma (HSED) programs at the Social Development Commission (SDC).
• Arts and Culture: Education opportunities for the enrichment of the body, mind and spirit in poetry, art, music, home care, and healthy living. Field trips are also offered.

The Dominican Center is accepting enrollment in no fee Adult Education classes. Classes are at the Dominican Center, 2470 West Locust Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Monday thru Thursday from 9:30A.M. - 11:30A.M.

Volunteer Tutors

Volunteer tutors are an integral part of adult education at the Dominican Center. Not only do they provide academic support, but they offer friendship. The care and trust that is fostered through friendship is critical to self and community efficacy necessary to the overall goal of neighborhood revitalization. Thank you tutors!
