Through BRYTE, Brown students tutor and mentor students in refugee families that have recently relocated to Providence. Our families come from Burundi, Rwanda, Somalia, Eritrea, Togo, Liberia, Iraq, Iran, and Haiti. Volunteers spend at least 3 hours/week with their student, spending time mainly on tutoring (homework help, literacy skills, English skills), but also doing activities with the student that helps build their comfort level in Providence and feel at home here. This can mean going to the library, playing soccer, coming to Brown, going to the zoo, the RISD museum, etc. Our students range in age from elementary school to parents in the families. We do our tutoring in the families homes in Providence, but we take you on your first visit so you know how to get there on the bus, and there'll be at least one other tutor working in the family so that you can go together if you want. BRYTE can be a wonderful way to get to know the city, the many populations who call it home, and build connections with Providence residents by sharing knowledge, skills, and cultural practices.
