Tutor incarcerated youth at Illinois Youth Center in Chicago

Literacy Volunteers of Illinois

At Literacy Volunteers of Illinois (LVI), we believe it takes a whole city to teach a student. That's why our Jump Start program provides volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with young men who are incarcerated at the Illinois Youth Center in Chicago, supplying a robust educational support system where it is most needed. The youth range from 15 to 21 years of age and almost all are behind in reading and math. We ask for a minimum time commitment of 1-1.5 hours per week, in which volunteers work with one youth at a time, though some volunteers may choose to do more. Teaching/tutoring experience is preferred but not required and training and resources are provided. All tutoring is done in a supervised setting.

Tutors must be over 21 years of age. Tutoring hours are 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. Monday - Friday. For more details contact Alex Kessler at Literacy Volunteers of Illinois: View email address on click.appcast.io.
