Hence, the program includes aspects of both reading and related self-concept development. The
content of the program provides routine and predictability for children, yet contains a variety of activities
to encourage engagement and interest. To maximize the impact of the program each session is structured
to incorporate specific skills required for successful reading. Systematic evaluations of mentoring
programs have provided evidence that the relationship between adults and children in a mentoring
capacity, as with R4L, has an effect on children’s life potential (Du Bois, Holloway, Valentine, & Cooper, 2002). The children work with a trained volunteer (referred to as a ‘reading buddy’) each week for fifteen
weeks throughout R4L, receiving support and encouragement for their efforts in reading.
