Reach Out and Read has developed literacy materials for healthcare providers based on key research findings about early literacy, reading, and school readiness.

These materials are intended to help providers incorporate Reach Out and Read into standard pediatric care, provide suggestions on how to select books for patients, and enable providers to work with parents to develop critical literacy skills in their children at home.

If you are not a current ROR provider, but you would like permission to reprint any of these materials, please contact the Reach Out and Read National Center's Communications Department at communications@reachoutandread.org.

"We would like to personally thank Reach Out and Read for this wonderful program that you provide. These books put smiles on the faces of our young patients. The children look forward to their books and would be disappointed if we did not have them. We all enjoy opening the box and going through all the books as well before adding them to the pediatric exam rooms for handing out."

"Thank you for the Reach Out and Read books that we receive here at Salud Medical Center and Lancaster Family Health Center. Our patients love these books, and every book that we give out helps to foster a love of reading and learning. Thanks so much for you help and support."
