America Reads

The America Reads program is a collaborative initiative between the Office of Academic and Community Affairs and Office of Student Financial Services – Federal Work-Study, dedicated to improving literacy among young learners. Through partnerships with local elementary schools, the program strives to ensure that all children are reading at grade level. 

As part of this nationwide initiative, America Reads employs college students as reading tutors, providing essential support to help children develop independent reading skills and achieve grade-level proficiency by third grade.
