Who We Are

Books in Every Home is run largely by volunteers. Field staff provides books and initial guidance to Readers' Circles, operate three libraries in donated space, and help to coordinate writing activities. But the daily functioning of all circles is up to the members, and expansion comes by request. Except for a small field staff comprised of lifelong community members, everyone involved with Books in Every Home is a volunteer.
