AARP Foundation Experience Corps Orange County

AARP Foundation Experience Corps is an intergenerational volunteer-based tutoring program that is proven to help children who aren’t reading at grade level become great readers by the end of third grade. We inspire and empower adults 50 and older to serve in their community and disrupt the cycle of poverty by making a lasting difference in the lives of America’s most vulnerable children.

The Experience Corps model is a proven intervention with measurable benefits for students, as well as positive mental and physical health benefits for volunteers who participate. By helping young students become better readers, Experience Corps seeks to ensure a lasting legacy of strong futures, supported schools, community partners and empowered volunteers.

AARP Foundation Experience Corps Orange County is hosted by Parentis Foundation. 

Service locations are at the following: Boys and Girls Clubs Capistrano Valley, Aliso Viejo, San Juan Capistrano, and Rancho Santa Margarita Branches; Boys & Girls Club of South Coast Area: San Clemente, Boys & Girls Clubs of Tustin, Boys & Girls Club of Huntington Valley, and Edward B. Cole Academy Charter School, Santa Ana. 

Program Launch:  Fall 2017
