Through the social development program, some services are available to help out potential learners and facilitate their return to school.
Depending on the case, some help can be provided to the learners with children who are in need of childcare service.
There is also the possibility of receiving financial aid for transportation for the learners who need to travel great distances to attend class.

HOW IT WORKS
Chaleur Adult Learning has a partnership with the unemployment insurance and social development programs to improve access to financial aid. This way, learners are guaranteed a certain level of income for the duration of their literacy training.
A case manager or employment counsellor is responsible for each case and communicates with us regularly to ensure proper follow-up.
Those currently in the workforce can also continue working and attend literacy class on a part-time basis. For francophones, an evening class is available in Petit-Rocher to accommodate learners who have a full-time day job.
The goal of financing is to give everyone who wants to finish their GED an opportunity to do so, no matter what their financial situation is.
