East Bay Agency for Children (EBAC) employs Case Managers who work with children and teens ages 8-19 in Oakland facing barriers and challenges to social and academic success. Distance learning due to COVID has exacerbated the challenges many face. EBAC Case Managers are looking for volunteers to provide consistent tutoring for their student clients at agreed upon regular intervals.
Tutoring will be virtual.
Students range from 4th grade through high school, so a wide variety of subject matter knowledge in prospective volunteers will be helpful, from basic elementary school math through high school level sciences.

Mission Statement
East Bay Agency for Children improves the well-being of children, youth and families by reducing the impact of trauma and social inequities.
Description
Healthy conditions are not distributed equally across our communities. Poverty, racism, and policies and laws that don’t support all families create barriers to wellness for many Bay Area families. East Bay Agency for Children’s (EBAC) mission is to improve the well-being of children, youth, and families by reducing the impact of trauma and social inequities.
EBAC’s transformational programs help children, youth, and families recover from trauma; build upon existing resilience to protect against long-term harm from past or future exposure to adversity; and when possible, prevent exposure to adverse childhood experiences.
Guided by a trauma-informed approach and learnings from its system transformation program Trauma Transformed, EBAC’s eight distinct, direct service programs include two counseling programs; a therapeutic nursery school; five Family Resource Centers; a health and wellness center, and grief support, afterschool, and youth empowerment programs.
