Children’s Reading Support Volunteers
You make reading fun.
Reading Support Volunteer Registrations have now closed. Please check back in September for our Fall sessions.
If you love reading and children, consider becoming a volunteer tutor in the Children's Reading Support program. Just a small commitment of time can help a child build reading confidence and a love of books that will last a lifetime.
What you'll be doing
Once a week, you'll spend 1 hour helping a child, ages 8-12, from the local area to develop their reading and math skills. The tutorials take place at the Library, where you'll have access to a variety of materials from our collection to make learning fun—such as books, art, technology, and more.
