Where do young readers come from? North Minneapolis' Plymouth Christian Youth Center knows that getting kids in the habit of reading pays off for the rest of their lives, so they run the Rocking Readers program. Volunteers meet once a week with kindergarters in one-to-one reading sessions in local public schools. Last year, they found adult readers for 530 children in seven elementary school sites. To volunteer, contact program coordinator Andrea Witt at 612/522-6501 or email her. It's easy and makes a big difference.
