The AmeriCorps program serves the Langley Park and Riverdale communities by providing literacy tutoring and enrichment activities to underserved middle school youth from the community. We have developed a program which directly aims at eliminating the educational gap through direct tutoring and homework assistance.

The primary activities of the program are as follows: Academic Year: 1) Literacy tutoring. 2) Homework assistance 3) Enrichment classes such as daily yoga, nutrition, sports, dance, and drama classes. 4) Summer Program
