EVkids

Evkids tutoring matches underserved children and teens at four afterschool sites in dorchester & roxbury with trained and supported university student volunteers for weekly one-on-one meetings that build the students' academic and personal skills. Professional staff meet with each student's educators and maintain regular contact with families and tutors in order to maintain a well-rounded community of support. The program's ultimate aim is to launch students into college with the skills and abilities to become college graduates.

The college success program provides college access counseling to high school juniors and seniors in the tutoring program, and matches tutoring graduates with one-on-one college success mentors through college graduation.

Evkids camp inspires in youth a sense of self, a sense of community, and a sense of the world around them through family-style living and physical activity. Youth learn new skills (archery, crafts, cooking, etc. ), play team sports, learn about the environment, and support one another through hikes in the green mountains of Vermont.
