Loud and Clear
Our program promotes healthy children and stronger communities.
By making reading aloud a daily activity, Reach Out and Read helps ensure that every child has the healthy foundation they need—cognitively, socially, and emotionally.
The first three years of a child’s life are critical.
We can reach nearly every child in the U.S. through pediatric well visits.
We deliver exceptional, lasting benefits to children and families.
