Dr. Miles explains this model of direct service and offers insights for program implementation, scalability, and sustainability. Listeners will gain information and inspiration for reconceptualizing service and partnership models for students and educators, especially in higher education. This LEAD on READ episode is a guidebook for leadership and entrepreneurship toward disrupting the educational status quo for better reading outcomes and support for students.
