SOS is hosting a group in April to put together literacy kits for families in our Parents as Teachers program. This is part of United Way's global volunteer month and also our work focus on literacy for the spring season.
Volunteers would assemble take-home literacy kits that go directly into home visits and group connections. Each kit would include:
1 children’s book
Parent tip sheet (how to read interactively)
Simple literacy activity (letter cards, story prompts, or picture walk)
Crayons or markers
PAT & SOS literacy resource sheet
Each kit would support one child for months of reading, language, and bonding.
