Experience Corps - Phoenix/Read On
 
 
 
AARP Experience Corps Phoenix is an intergenerational volunteer-based tutoring program that is proven to help children who are not reading at grade level become efficient readers by the end of third grade. Members will recruit, train, and support adult volunteers to help children strengthen their reading fluency and improve their reading skills by 3rd grade through a trained program model. The Experience Corps model is a ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) approved intervention strategy with measurable benefits for students, as well as positive mental and physical health benefits for volunteers who participate. By helping young students become better readers, Experience Corps seeks to ensure a legacy of strong futures, supported schools and empowered volunteers. The program inspires and empowers adults 50 and older to serve in their community and disrupt the cycle of poverty by making a lasting difference in the lives of America’s most vulnerable children.
