Generally, volunteers meet with a child once a week at a school or site to tutor math, reading, general homework or do assessment prep, or just chat with a student or small group about life and school, and maybe play board games or shoot baskets, etc. Volunteers in community-based programs (Big Brothers Big Sisters, Youth Horizons) pick up a child once a week and participate in activities at home or in the community.
