OUR STORY NEARLY 60 YEARS OF FREE PROGRAMS Tutoring Plus was founded in 1964
when a group of Cambridge mothers came together, determined to provide more
academic support for their children. The Mother’s Executive Committee of the
Cambridge Neighborhood House established an initial partnership with the MIT
Social Service Committee, a student group that had been inspired to local action
by President Johnson’s War on Poverty. This partnership launched one of the
longest-running out-of-school-time academic programs for Cambridge youth. What
began as matches meeting at kitchen tables has grown to a center-based model
that provides over 170 students with free tutoring, mentoring and enrichment
support each year.
