On Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 5-7:30PM we are hosting an After School Program for middle school age refugee youth. This is an opportunity for them to complete their homework, receive individualized attention, and have supplementary instruction in problem areas. We are in need of volunteers to help us make sure each student receives the support they need academically and socially. We will provide snacks and supplies for the program, as well as a brief volunteer orientation.
