Elementary Reading Circle Program (In-person/Remote)

1-4 hours / weekly
-
United for Literacy believes everyone has the right to literacy and education in a positive and safe environment that meets each learner's unique needs. We have been on the front lines of reading help since 1899 and we continue to be an organization that works with and for our community.

In our Reading Circle Program, you will work with elementary-aged learners (ages 7-12) and create a fun environment that builds positive memories and experiences around learning and reading. 
You will work one-on-one and in small groups with learners to play games, do activities, read, write and build their confidence! We would really appreciate your contribution!
