Shoutout to tutors for showing up and having an amazing first day as Reach launched the After School Tutoring Program! The energy in the room was unforgettable! 🎊

Both new and returning tutors were excited to share what they most looked forward to on their first day:

“I’m excited to meet the students and bond with them while helping them build their literacy skills.” — R.R

“I’m excited to show the kids that tutoring can be more fun than they realize!” — S.G

Here’s to a great year of reading, growing, and having fun along the way!

Come celebrate Reach’s newest authors!
Learn why literacy matters to Reach teens and discover how their voices will be amplified in the community this year!

The Teen Publishing Project (TPP) gives Reach tutors the chance to work with skilled story coaches and publishing industry professionals to develop ideas for their own books.

Teens gain the valuable experience of becoming published authors, and their books are used to inspire and motivate young students through Reach’s After-School Tutoring Program.

Recently, at Reach’s Summer Leadership Academy, representatives from Only Make Believe collaborated with Reach teens to create handmade costumes! Together, they spent the day tapping into their creativity and learning craft-making skills from the talented Only Make Believe team, creating art for a purpose.

The creations Reach teens crafted will be used in interactive theatre performances for children in hospitals, giving young patients a joyful experience and a chance to engage their imaginations despite their circumstances. It’s a powerful reminder that creativity can be a source of comfort and connection, even in the hardest moments.

We’re so grateful for partners like Only Make Believe, who help our teens see that their hands-on skills can bring real joy to others. Reach looks forward to another year of meaningful, creative collaboration!

Last week, we celebrated the power of finding freedom in your own words. Teens at Summer Leadership Academy came together to do just that, offering heartfelt feedback on poems written by people currently incarcerated, and wrote back to share poems of their own.

With the support of Free Minds Book Club & Writing Workshop Poet Ambassadors, who generously shared their personal stories of incarceration, transformation, and hope—the teens explored themes of justice, dignity, and the freedom that comes from telling your own story. The Poet Ambassadors’ words reminded us that liberation isn’t just a destination; it’s a practice, a page, a voice finding its way into the light.
