Reading Program
We will be contacting the teacher at the child’s school to determine their reading level, work on phonics, and vocabulary, and use materials that the young person is interested in and we know that will encourage them. We have support and help from:

By making a difference and building self-confidence and self-esteem, we have already seen a change in our young people.
