RedRover Readers
[formerly Humane Education Ambassador Readers (HEAR)]
This unique community-based literacy program is aligned with academic content standards and helps children explore the bond between people and animals through stories and discussion. RedRover Readers volunteers visit elementary school classrooms, after-school programs, animal shelters and other venues to read to children and lead discussions -- helping children develop critical thinking skills and empathy.
Find out how the program works, and how you can become a volunteer or bring the program to your community.
