    • Mission

    Joyful Readers is committed to helping Philadelphia students gain the literacy skills they need to become successful, confident, and joyful readers! Joyful Readers’ mission is to ensure that Philadelphia students gain the foundational reading skills they need to succeed. Our vision is that all students who struggle with reading will have an effective tutor who can support them in their school.

    About Us

    Building Brighter Futures for Philadelphia's Young Readers

    Joyful Readers brings full-time AmeriCorps tutors directly into Philadelphia public schools to provide daily, intensive reading tutoring to K-3 students. Tutors serve in small teams in elementary schools for a full school year. They work with the same 20 students each and every day in both 1-on-1 and small group formats. Using research-based, high-quality curriculum endorsed by teachers and experts alike, students gain the literacy skills critical for success in school, at work, and in their daily lives.
