Become a facilitator for one of our Book Clubs!
If you're a reader with a flexible weekday schedule who loves to delve into the meaning of stories and work with people of all ages, this might be the opportunity you've been craving...
We have programming for middle school, high school and alternative high school (older students) for afterschool and in-school reading intervention programs. We have programming for incarceration and post-incarceration and senior citizens as well.
Learn how to conduct compassionate, insightful discussions with folks that may never have had any kind of mentorship or have had limited access to the world of literature and their own life possibilities!
