At orientation, we will go over the permission forms and participation agreements. Parents are encouraged to attend this portion. Then the ambassadors will get a glimpse of what the discussions might look like and receive their first book. Parents can hang out or see if they can find the unicorn or Han Solo in carbonite on UArizona’s beautiful campus.

You can find the application for Middle School Reading Ambassadors on the MSRAP page along with a preliminary schedule, past author visits, and a link to our podcast.

You can find the application for the Teen Reading Ambassadors on the TRAP page along with their preliminary schedule, past author visits, and a link to our podcast.
