Homework Help for Youth Program
Homework Help for Youth Program K - 12
Beginning Fall 2026-27 School Year
Do you like working with kids? Hennepin County Library is looking for volunteers to work with K-12 youth after school on homework-related projects. Volunteers support students' academic success by helping them develop literacy and mathematics skills, understand homework assignments, and prepare for college. Volunteers work once a week for at least one semester. Experience with youth is helpful. Training is provided. A criminal background check and references are required. A commitment of one two-hour shift per week is standard.
