In 2023, New Haven Reads was chosen as the Lead Literacy organization as part of the Mayor’s Tutoring Initiative (NHTI). The NHTI mission is to empower every student to reach their full potential in reading and math. In this citywide effort, New Haven Reads supports 10 afterschool organizations to help them learn a version of our tutoring program that they may teach their own students. Literacy Instructors visit and support all of these partners as they implement these programs. The NHTI now reaches over 600 students every week! The organizations using the literacy tutoring model based on NHR are LEAP, Boys and Girls Club, IRIS, Inspired Communities, Upon This Rock, and NHR. Four programs participate in the infusion model which is an adapted group learning model; Auntie Rose Day Care and Preschool, Solar Youth, and CPEN!
