The Humboldt County Office of Education Early Literacy Partners Program is offering free trainings on Thursday, December 12 for individuals interested in supporting students in reading and/or math.

Community members can become an early literacy volunteer and help children in kindergarten through second grade improve their skills with one-on-one tutoring support.

Volunteers are needed throughout Humboldt county.

No prior experience is necessary, and all materials and information will be provided at the training. Standard background checks, including fingerprinting & TB testing, are required. All costs are covered through the program.

The Early Literacy tutor training takes place at Humboldt County Office of Education, 901 Myrtle Avenue, Eureka.

To learn more about the program or sign up for the training, please contact Olivia Kernen at 707-445-7007 or okernen@hcoe.org.
