Description
English acquisition is not only a prerequisite to citizenship and civic engagement but is critical to improving income, educational attainment, and ability to access health and human services. Helping students learn English is fundamental to advancing immigrant integration.
RSVP Volunteers will be matched with students in one-on-one, small group settings, or as class aides, assisting ESL Teachers in programs. The volunteers will provide service 1-5 times a week for 1-6 hours until clients graduate from the program.
