Online Tutoring: Elementary/Middle School Students in Supportive Housing

Save to Favorites

WHO WE ARE:

Lantern is grounded in the mission to champion the independence and well-being of New Yorkers who are impacted by or threatened with homelessness. Our objective is to make sure that our residents can find and maintain stable housing through emergency shelter and supportive housing. Our on-site social services bring residents and staff together to create opportunities for personal recovery, wellness and growth. We have 16 supportive housing buildings located in Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx, and three shelters based in Manhattan and Queens.

THIS OPPORTUNITY:

We are now looking for volunteer tutors who can tutor elementary or middle school students online for 1-2 hours a week. Topics include reading and math. Tutoring will be one-on-one, and we'll work with your schedule! Our educational directors on-site have worked to get students access to the technology and resources scholars need to complete their coursework.

BACKGROUND CHECK:

Lantern provides housing and comprehensive supportive services for individuals and families affected by homelessness, mental health concerns and chronic illness, as well as young adults who have aged out of foster care. To ensure the ongoing safety of populations served, our government funders require all volunteers to undergo a background check.
