Reading Partners

Reading Partners'' mission is to help children become lifelong readers by empowering communities to provide individualized literacy instruction with measurable results. With a theory of change premised on the idea that community involvement is a critical component of student achievement and success, Reading Partners offers high need public schools a close partnership, creating on-campus reading centers both during and after the school day.  To achieve this, Reading Partners recruits and trains community volunteers to provide one-on-one reading support to elementary school students utilizing a structured curriculum. Working with Reading Partners staff, classroom teachers refer students to the program who will benefit from additional instruction and support.
