About 321 Read Program

The 321 Read program matches a community volunteer with a struggling reader for a one-on-one weekly session of reading to and with the student. Each week the youngster is given a new book to enlarge the student’s personal library. Once the student is matched with a “reading friend”, Youth Link Southern Indiana commits to providing a volunteer for a full three years. Locations at Greater Clark County, Clarksville, Silver Creek, and Borden-Henryville locations are available.
