Reach Out and Read for Parents and Educators

Reach Out and Read

Reach Out and Read's early childhood experts and medical champions create a number of wonderful literacy materials that Reach Out and Read providers distribute to the millions of families we serve every year.

Reach Out and Read is proud to share some of those materials with all parents and educators who have an interest in promoting early literacy and school readiness for all.

With your support, we are confident that one day every American child will arrive at kindergarten with the critical skills they'll need to learn to read and succeed in school.

"The Reach Out and Read program gets children ready to read and parents like me wanting to read. From birth, my son loved to hear me read books to him. Now he is an active 2-year-old who can never get enough of reading. With a new book at every well visit, he always has a book to read."
