Yolo Reads provides free tutoring to adults who want to improve their reading and writing skills.

One in six Yolo County residents cannot read and write sufficiently to carry out day-to-day activities at work and home. Adult literacy tutors provide one-on-one tutoring to an adult in their community. Tutors assist adult learners to meet their personal reading and writing goals such as reading to their children, completing a written driver license exam, creating a resume or acquiring new computer skills.

We currently have adults in West Sacramento waiting for a tutor.

Training, support and materials are provided by Yolo Reads staff.

Yolo Reads is a free program of the Yolo County Library.

The Yolo County Library is specifically looking for volunteer tutors who reside in Northern California. This is a virtual volunteer opportunity.

*MUST BE A RESIDENT OF YOLO COUNTY OR IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING COUNTIES (SACRAMENTO, SOLANO, etc.)
