Sessions are ty;ically early afternoon at the neighborhood schools or early evening at the Martin Pollak Project offices at 3701 Eastern Avenue.

  • Time commitment is 1.5 hours per week plus once a month social activities for 3 hours on a weekend to build our community.
  • Background check and covid vaccination are required.
