Tutoring Program
Our Home has been blessed to have volunteers from our community who come three times a week to mentor our children, one on one, in a variety of school subjects. Additionally, we have formed a friendship with the Title One Cobb County Tutoring Program and they provide several tutors weekly to help meet the academic needs of our children who often arrive to our Home a year or more behind in their studies. Twenty kids in care means LOTS of homework. Our house parents certainly thank God for the tutors.
