Reading Buddies is a reading program where children are paired up with a TAG (Teen Advisory Group) volunteer for one-on-one reading sessions in a safe, fun and friendly environment. Reading Buddies is not a tutoring program; teen volunteers do not teach children how to read. Instead, children develop reading skills by connecting with a big buddy who can show them how much fun reading can be.
