Behavioral Health - Working with Youth - Tutoring Club (1:1 Academic Encouragement)

Tutors connect with a child for academic support, building a positive relationship. Tutoring takes place after-school hours. 

Volunteer candidates must be consistent, positive, patient, flexible, and adept at appreciating “What’s strong” instead of “What’s wrong.” We create a calm environment at the residential treatment center to engage middle schoolers one-to-one for 30 minute periods. The shift will have three periods -- meaning a volunteer would typically tutor three different children during the afternoon. 

Commitment: Once a week for at least 8 weeks.
