The Moonlight Coalition for Adult Learning provides accessible, flexible GED and adult literacy education to adults ages 17 and over where they reside. Moonlight provides programming first at Proctor Recreation Center and at other locations as needed.

By focusing accessible education opportunities in the Peoria, Moonlight will help to re-emphasize the importance of education and literacy. With a GED, residents who are unemployed or underemployed currently will be able to access higher paying jobs, increasing their economic stability and by association, that of the targeted neighborhood.

The Moonlight Coalition for Adult Learning ("Moonlight") was originally established in 1994 to provide organized activities for young members of the community to combat juvenile delinquency and prevent crime. Organized sports like basketball were combined with GED instruction as a way to break down barriers for those who thought formal education wasn't accessible or "cool".

Today, Moonlight focuses on providing easy access to GED education for those seeking to earn their high school diploma. In direct contrast to other programs that only take new students at the beginning of each semester and that are located outside of local communities, Moonlight focuses on providing accessible open education opportunities, reaching those in need of support in the communities where they live and work.
Staying true to its origins, the Moonlight Coalition also works to ensure accessibility to quality recreational facilities for all members of the community - especially youth and the underserved.
