Read Across Generations

at Gaithersburg Library

Come have your child read books one-on-one with a trained volunteer!

Join us at Gaithersburg Library to celebrate a love of literacy by reading one-on-one with previously selected JCA Interages volunteers. Children can bring their own book or select one from the library. JCA volunteers are vetted and trained by JCA staff in communication and intergenerational interactions. This weekly program runs weekly and follows MCPS's schedule.

For ages preschool through 5th grade. No registration needed.

In collaboration with the Jewish Council for the Aging (JCA) Heyman Interages Center.
