Citizenship classes help students prepare for the naturalization interview, as well as the 100 questions used for the civics portion of the naturalization test to become a US citizen. Classes meet twice a week, with one class being held in Columbus and one in Schuyler. Morning or evening classes are available, and students may start anytime during the year and continue for as long as needed until they have the confidence to pass the citizenship test. Classes are taught entirely in English; students must have a basic understanding of English to attend.

English as a Second Language (ESL) classes help students learn English through conversation, writing, and listening.

One-on-one employability skills help individuals look for and apply for jobs and are tailored to specific needs.
