Tutors Needed
This project is a
combined effort coordinated by CREC, The Village
for Children & Families and the Center for
Children’s Advocacy.
Are you looking to make a significant difference
in a child’s life?
We are looking for caring people to provide
tutorial services to students at risk of
dropping out and/or becoming school avoidant.
Research shows that the consistent presence of
an adult mentor can reduce these tendencies and
improve confidence and self-esteem for at risk
youths.
Everyone is needed; however, bilingual and
math expertise is encouraged.
Please call (860) 524-4042 or
email mfaison@crec.org
Additional information:
This is a voluntary opportunity at Burr or
Milner Schools in Hartford; on Tuesdays or
Thursdays only from 3:00-4:00 p.m.

Everybody Wins! CT
Everybody Wins! CT
is a not-for-profit literacy and mentoring
organization serving the capital region.
We are an independent affiliate of
Everybody Wins! USA,
which has provided reading enrichment and
mentoring programs for at-risk youth in over 16
states since the program’s origins in New York
City in 1991.
The
flagship program of Everybody Wins! is “Power
Lunch,” a lunchtime read-aloud program that
matches adult volunteers – Reading Mentors –
with children who read below grade level and/or
need a positive adult role model. Once per
week, volunteers meet with the same children for
a one-on-one half-hour reading session.
Everybody Wins! CT already has over 330
volunteers in the capital region reading to
children – but so much more can be done.
Despite recent improvements in standardized test
scores, children in cities like Hartford and New
Britain still fall behind their suburban
counterparts in literacy skills due to one of
the widest achievement gaps in the nation.
Some of
our most skilled and dedicated volunteers are
retired teachers – and we would love to have
even more of them among our legions of Reading
Mentors!
