The Jewish Coalition for Literacy (JCL) is a non-profit organization based in Berkeley, CA, dedicated to promoting literacy and educational opportunities for children in the Bay Area. Through their network of volunteer tutors, JCL provides one-on-one reading support to emerging and struggling readers in under-resourced schools, fostering a love for learning and helping children reach their full potential.
Driven by Jewish values of social justice and Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), JCL works to build bridges across communities and create nurturing relationships that empower children in grades K-5. By offering structured training and support to tutors of all backgrounds, JCL ensures that every child receives the care and attention they need to develop strong reading skills. With a focus on fostering curiosity, self-confidence, and a lifelong love for reading, JCL is making a lasting impact on the lives of children and their educational journeys.
