Join Midcoast Literacy and become a tutor for an adult or child who needs help with literacy. We offer Tutor Trainings for both our Read Together program (volunteers working with kids ages 6-14) and our Adult Literacy programs periodically during the year. Each in-person training program is held over 3 days.

VOLUNTEER IN 2023!

Can you help an adult or child learn to read? New volunteers are urgently needed to help us meet demand for our programs.
