Volunteers are needed to work with the Richmond Library's literacy program - L.E.A.P. L.E.A.P. is located behind the Richmond Public Library in the Richmond Works building on Macdonald and 25th. The vibrant literacy program serves students, who for the most part, left school by the 10th grade, disengaged with the curriculum and the school environment. L.E.A.P. students generally need support with reading comprehension and basic math skills, beginning with multiplication and division.

• Volunteers need to have patience and specific skills set in the following: addition, subtraction, mulitplication, division, decimals, and percentage. Reading comprehension - how to ask questions about the text and discuss the text with students. We do provide ongoing training and support to our volunteers.
