Let’s Work Together
To foster healthy growth and early literacy for children in the United States
We are fortunate to work with many partners who share in our vision that all families should have the tools and information they need to make reading aloud a daily routine – so that every child, everywhere has a foundation for success.
Because we are the only national pediatric early literacy model endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics with the potential to reach 90% of the 20 million children under the age of 5 living in the United States.
Reach Out and Read provides opportunities to create high level impact that affects children all across the United States and in your own neighborhood.
We’re the most researched psycho-social intervention in pediatric medicine and have 16 peer reviewed studies to prove it.
By sharing the power of reading aloud with families of all backgrounds and economic means, helping them to make reading a part of their daily lives. This creates a ripple effect throughout our communities.
Reach Out and Read is the only organization working directly with pediatric medical providers to share the lifelong benefits that result from families reading aloud to their children every day. We work to ensure that every child has access to children’s books and that their parents are supported in their role as their child’s first and most important teacher. By reaching children during the critical early years, we can combat the effects of inequality, so that family income, race, and geography are no longer predictors of kindergarten readiness, school, and life success.
