Pluspunten
I started my time at Reading Partners as an AmeriCorps service member. Through my two AmeriCorps terms, I had countless opportunities to challenge myself, tackle new projects, and grow my professional skill set. In sharing experiences with AmeriCorps members at other programs, I learned that the Reading Partners AmeriCorps program is a unique one, providing a wealth of professional training, a high level of responsibility in our roles, and ongoing mentorship from our managers. We received 3-4 weeks of intensive training at the start of our service, focusing on both team building and prepping the skill sets needed for success. After serving, I joined the team full-time. My team is phenomenal - I always feel supported, challenged, and inspired by the folks I work alongside. Everyone has a visible passion for the work that they do, despite any hurdles that come up along the way. I have a manager that cares about my professional development, I have peers that push me to be my best, and an organizational mission I truly care feel inspired by. I couldn't ask for more in my workplace!

We are a very fast-paced organization - if you aren't able to adapt to an ever-changing environment, Reading Partners may not be your bag.
