Background of the Study:
Adult literacy programs are essential for enhancing socio-economic development by empowering individuals with basic skills that improve employment prospects and community participation. In Aba North Local Government Area, various literacy initiatives have been introduced to address high illiteracy rates among adults (Eke, 2023). These programs are designed to provide practical skills and knowledge that enable adults to participate more effectively in economic activities and civic life (Okafor, 2024). The impact of these programs has been reflected in improved literacy levels, increased self-esteem, and enhanced community engagement (Chidiebere, 2023). However, challenges such as limited funding, inadequate teaching materials, and inconsistent program implementation continue to affect their overall effectiveness (Nwankwo, 2024). This study investigates the impact of adult literacy programs on community development and individual empowerment in Aba North, offering insights for policy refinement and program improvement (Uzo, 2023).
