Do you have 2 hours a week to help people in our community learn what they need to feel successful and supported in such areas as completing job applications, reading to their children, navigating computers and technology, studying for the GED, budgeting, learning how to write, and other areas of critical importance to build long-term life skills.

San Mateo County READS is seeking VOLUNTEER TUTORS to work one-on-one, in small groups, or in conversation clubs with adult learners. Location: East Palo Alto library.

• Change lives and develop relationships
• Share their love of reading, writing, and other life skills
