Grant Overview

In Delaware, this program aims to improve reading skills among elementary-aged students through a mentorship model. By pairing youth mentors with younger students, the initiative not only aids younger learners but also contributes to the personal growth of mentors. The target outcome is a significant improvement in reading proficiency among participating students, with a goal of reducing the number of struggling readers by 20% within the first year. Delaware's unique focus on youth mentorship means that applicants must demonstrate a clear understanding of the state's literacy needs and a commitment to addressing them through evidence-based mentorship programs.

Why Outcomes Matter in Delaware: Improving reading proficiency is critical in Delaware, where 30% of third-graders score below the state average in reading. By targeting struggling readers, this initiative aims to address the state's literacy challenges and improve academic outcomes. Delaware's emphasis on youth mentorship means that applicants must demonstrate a commitment to developing the leadership qualities of older students while supporting the literacy development of younger students.

Delaware's Literacy Landscape: The state's literacy challenges are characterized by a significant gap in reading proficiency between elementary-aged students. To address this gap, funding will support initiatives that pair youth mentors with younger students, leveraging the mentorship model to improve literacy outcomes. Delaware's suburban areas, such as those surrounding Wilmington, present unique opportunities for collaboration and resource sharing.

Implementation Approach in Delaware: To achieve the desired outcomes, applicants must demonstrate a clear understanding of Delaware's literacy needs and a commitment to addressing them through evidence-based mentorship programs. The implementation approach will involve training youth mentors, providing resources and support for participating students, and monitoring progress to ensure that the initiative is meeting its goals.
