America Reads tutors are SF State University undergraduate students from various backgrounds and majors who are interested in working with youth. As part of their training, tutors utilize creative and innovative ways to design culturally relevant lesson plans to enhance the reading experience for their assigned students. Over time, tutors develop experience and understanding related to working in urban public schools, while they make connections with teachers, principals, supervisors, and, most rewarding, with their elementary level students. For the 2016-2017 academic year, 30 children received 1-on-1 reading support from America Reads tutors. Student tutors also provided general classroom support to over 148 children and 20 teachers. The America Reads training course (ED 645) is ongoing throughout the academic year and provides tutors over 52 hours of in-depth preparation, problem-solving, and community-building. The average America Reads tutor spent more than 250 hours in an elementary-level classroom.
Partner Schools - Longfellow E.S., Junipero Serra E.S., Jose Ortega E.S., Lakeshore E.S., Longfellow E.S., Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy, Jose Ortega E.S, El Dorado, and SF ED Fund

The America Counts tutoring program is a federally funded work-study program whereby SF State students are recruited across colleges to tutor youth in K-8 public schools and after-school programs throughout San Francisco. The program focuses on elementary and middle school students who are struggling with their math skills, but tutors may be asked to tutor and facilitate in other areas such as reading, history, sports, etc. The goal of the program is to help build a strong mathematical foundation for students and in so doing, ensure greater college success and access to careers in a growing technological market. This year, a total of 20 tutors provided after-school program support to over 2,230 children and 10 schools. The average America Reads tutor spent more than 250 hours at each of their after school programs.
Partner Schools - Sheridan E.S. Cesar Chavez E.S., Guadalupe E.S., Mission Education Center, Cesar Chavez E.S., Marshall E.S., Lakeshore E.S., James Denman M.S., Lakeshore E.S., and Sunnyside E.S.

JusticeCorps is an AmeriCorps program that has both a fellowship for recent college graduates or current seniors, and a student member program for students who will be enrolled in one of five partner universities: San Francisco State, Cal State East Bay, San Jose State, Stanford, and UC Berkeley. Every year, we recruit SF State students, who serve self-represented litigants in San Mateo, Santa Clara, Contra Costa, San Francisco, and Alameda Counties.

Our members assist litigants who cannot afford attorneys to help themselves resolve their legal matters in family and civil law. JusticeCorps accepts applications every February for the year-long program that begins each fall. They also offer a select number of full-time positions providing an opportunity for members to receive a living allowance during their one-year term of service, as well as an education award.
