A Safe and Restorative Learning Space where children are surrounded by caring adults from their community who share their enthusiasm for learning and reading with the children, and commit to serving them as authentic mentors.

A Program that Boosts Student Motivation to read, generates positive attitudes toward learning, and connects the needs of children and families to the resources in their communities.
