Abstract
Students for Appalachia (SFA) was established in 1968 by Berea College students to serve the community through programs in arts, crafts, home visitation, recreation, tutoring of school children and serving as referral agents for public service and federal programs. SFA students also teach basic literacy skills for adults and assist those interested in obtaining a high school diploma through a program conducted in homes and community centers. The student lead program would later become a Berea College sponsored program with programming eventually being sponsored through the Center for Excellence in Learning through Service (CELTS).
