Laguna Hills, CA

OUR PURPOSE

To Guide the Next Generation of Readers and Mentor Future Leaders.

OUR MISSION

Parentis Foundation seeks to address a major contributor to poverty – the inability of children to read proficiently by the end of third grade.  Through an intergenerational approach, we provide both older adult volunteer tutor/mentors and children with opportunities to enrich their lives, build self-confidence, and share a sense of purpose through literacy.

OUR VISION

By pairing kindergarten through third-grade children with highly trained volunteer tutors, we will improve the literacy skills of children at risk of not reading fluently by fourth grade, while providing meaningful opportunities for older adults who serve as literacy tutor/mentors in after-school youth organizations throughout Orange County.

CORE VALUES

Experience Corps Orange County tutors and students share a continuum and simultaneous exchange of core values: Responsibility, Respect, Knowledge, and Care.

Parentis Foundation is a proud affiliate of AARP Foundation Experience Corps.  

Experience Corps OC currently offers services within the Boys & Girls Clubs of Capistrano Valley's three branches: Aliso Viejo, San Juan Capistrano Valley, Rancho Santa Margarita and Boys & Girls Clubs of Huntington Valley: Delaware branch.
