Description / Comments:
Meet Maria Martin, a representative (albeit imaginary)
program director and the heroine of our story. Her
experience launching the TUTOR LINKS project in mythical
Grand Valley captures the essential activities in the
start-up year of a volunteer tutor program. Understanding
this story is essential to the intended audience--those who
are considering finding partners and building their own
programs:
- School administrators, staff, and teachers
- Community-based organizations that deliver volunteer
services
- Businesses and other community groups that can provide
volunteers
This story can serve as a guide to help you envision your
own programs, jump in with both feet, and make your start-up
year successful.
You can browse through this book, reading selectively from
the si
debars and documents to develop a cursory knowledge of a
start-up year's activities and challenges. Or you can look
more deeply into the text of each document to gain specific
ideas about the thinking, planning, and questioning required
by each season's activities. You'll find a list of helpful
resources at the story's conclusion.
