Volunteer Tutor Training

Are you skilled in a subject area? Do you have a good understanding of child development? Are you a problem solver? Are you an active listener?

Do you like to help children figure out their homework, guide them through questions and problems, encourage critical thinking, and reach those "aha!" moments?

If your answer is "yes" to any of these questions, and you are 18 or older, this volunteer opportunity may be just right for you!

Training is now completed in one evening! Sessions are displayed on our website.

We will encourage participation as we discuss the foster care system, trauma informed-care, educational systems and special education consideration, expectations in tutoring, and resources for you, the tutor.

After training, you will go through a comprehensive background check. Once you begin tutoring, you will be supported monthly by our team!

Consider this opportunity if you can commit to a semester of weekly tutor support for a student who has experienced foster care.

Statistically, these students have the lowest academic scores and lowest high school graduation rates of any other group. Why? They are in a point of limbo - with significant uncertainty. Yet, they are capable. Thank you for helping them to see their potential.
