About Us
Project READ is a coalition of public and private organizations working
together to build skilled workers, strong families, and healthy communities.
Through Project READ, over 35 literacy and basic skills providers, 80 schools
and tutoring sites in Montgomery, Greene, and Preble counties, and over 100 businesses
and community partners are committed to building literacy in the Miami Valley.
Since July 1990, Project READ has been located at Sinclair Community College
in Dayton, Ohio. Project READ relies solely on grants and individual gifts for financial support.
Project READ operates the following programs to benefit the community:
The Project READ Helpline individually matches adult learners with free GED,
reading, English language, and family literacy classes and links volunteers with programs
to tutor adults and youth.
FY11 Totals: Project READ staff individually matched a record-breaking 2,357 adult
learners with local classes through the Project READ Helpline.
Project READ engages in Community Outreach Activities in order to inform area
residents about volunteer opportunities and free classes as well as to model family
literacy activities that parents can replicate to nurture reading skills in their children.
FY11 Totals: Project READ planned or participated in 24 community events, reaching
more than 8,800 people with the literacy message
