How do I volunteer to help at a Family Literacy Center?

Thank you for your interest in helping in this worthy cause so fundamental to an individual's success in life. Volunteer tutors are the life-blood of Family Literacy Centers, Inc.

Volunteers commit to spend one hour, twice a week with their student. They also coordinate the student's learning with the student's family. Although this is the requirement, some dedicated volunteers choose to tutor multiple students.

Volunteers receive training from Family Literacy Centers, Inc. This training provides training that helps volunteers become effective tutors. You can view the video training on the web.

Volunteers Change Lives. Here is an example from a parent:

"David* hated reading time. It was a big fight every night. His attitude has changed. He loves to read and can't get enough. He is trying to read books he would have never tried before. I am so grateful for this program and his tutor. David loves him. He thinks he is the greatest! Thank you for all who have made it a success!"
