MAPP, or the Multicultural Advancement Partnership Program, works with immigrants, refugees, international students and other foreign residents to assist them in their understanding of the English language, enhance their experience in America and work towards a greater understanding of human rights in Boston.

Each volunteer is partnered with one or several individuals, who vary in age from college students to elders. Volunteers act as mentors, teachers, friends and guides to their partner(s) during their integration into American society. Special emphasis is placed on literacy and conversation.
