Start the Adventure in Reading (STAIR) is a New Orleans-based nonprofit focused on improving literacy among lower elementary students through free, one-on-one tutoring and a structured curriculum. By targeting students who are not meeting critical grade level reading benchmarks, STAIR aims to boost reading skills and self-esteem, with the broader goal of increasing high school graduation rates and other long-term milestones that hinge on early reading success. The organization operates within the civic and social sector, offering a hands-on intervention that pairs volunteers with students to address individual reading needs. Based in New Orleans and serving local communities, STAIR is a relatively small nonprofit with a mission-driven approach to elementary education and literacy support. The organization has undergone leadership changes, including the appointment of a new executive director in 2018, reflecting its ongoing governance and program development. While the primary focus is educational support, the effort sits within a broader network of literacy and community-focused organizations in the region.
