With schools underway around the area, SMART Reading is seeking volunteers throughout Douglas County.

Site coordinators are needed to lead by coordinating volunteers, building relationships with school staff, organizing reading sessions and helping to ensure that local students receive reading support and books to keep. The time commitment averages 3 to 6 hours per week during school hours from October through the middle of May.
