The DC Tutoring & Mentoring Initiative (DCTMI) seeks an energetic, well-organized, self-motivated, dynamic "practical idealist" who can inspire others by their actions and words to get involved in in our work and who can be a hands-on leader and manager in implementing our goals.
DC Tutoring & Mentoring Initiative
DCTMI is a grassroots campaign to get a tutor or mentor for the 2 out of 3 DC students reading below grade level or with other academic or non-academic needsapproximately 60,000 students. We recruit new volunteers at farmers markets and public events and through social media, employers, religious congregations, and civic organizations. The volunteers are matched with our 50 partner tutoring and mentoring organizations and schools based on when and where they are available, what age group they want to work with, any special skills and preferences, and where they are most needed.
Equally important, our broader goal is to create a civic culture where community members feel a sense of responsibility for and fellowship with one another, regardless of class, race, neighborhood, or ideology and actively work together to tackle the major challenges faced by our communities and the world.
NOTE: See background documents referenced under "Document Links" below for a more thorough discussion of our approach and theory of change.
