    Description

    Belong! is seeking mentors who can develop relationships with students, build confidence in their academic skills and perseverance and work on the child’s socio-emotional development. A typical session includes homework help, reading, social skills support, and time spent getting to know each other through games and conversation.

    Students are in grades K-6 and nearly all are English language learners. These students greatly benefit from our individualized attention!

    Time Commitment:

    One evening (Tues): 6:00 - 8:00pm (includes time for mentors to get set up).

    Volunteers must commit to working the entire school year (September - May).
