Little Buddies

Reading Buddies is not a tutoring service. Commitment to attend at least 8 scheduled meetings is required.
Upon acceptance to the Reading Buddies program, your child (Little Buddy) will be paired with a Teen Buddy, a trained teen library volunteer.
Space is limited and your participation in the program is not guaranteed until all applications have been reviewed and we have been able to match your child with a Teen Buddy volunteer.
