Extra information
This question falls under Reading Aloud, one of Humanitas Groningen's activities. If you'd like to become a reading volunteer, a volunteer coordinator will first meet you. Afterward, the coordinator will accompany you to meet the family. This coordinator will remain involved in the background and be available as a resource. You'll also have an introductory meeting with other (newly started) reading volunteers. Online training courses are available to help you successfully complete your volunteer work. We also regularly organize (optional) informative and informal meetings to share experiences and gain knowledge.
