Organizations Filed Purposes:
REACH OUT AND READ GIVES YOUNG CHILDREN A FOUNDATION FOR SUCCESS BY INCORPORATING BOOKS INTO PEDIATRIC CARE AND ENCOURAGING FAMILIES TO READ ALOUD TOGETHER.
REACH OUT AND READ IS THE ONLY NATIONAL EARLY LITERACY ORGANIZATION WORKING DIRECTLY WITH PEDIATRIC CARE PROVIDERS TO TRAIN THEM TO MODEL THE VALUE TO PARENTS OF READING ALOUD TO THEIR CHILDREN EVERY DAY. REACH OUT AND READ IS DRIVEN BY THE MISSION TO GIVE YOUNG CHILDREN A FOUNDATION FOR SUCCESS BY INCORPORATING BOOKS INTO PEDIATRIC CARE AND ENCOURAGING FAMILIES TO READ ALOUD TOGETHER. WHEN FAMILIES READ ALOUD TO THEIR YOUNG CHILDREN, THEY CAN GIVE THEM A BETTER START TO LIFE. THE PROGRAM BEGINS IN INFANCY AND CONTINUES THROUGH AGE FIVE, WITH A SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON CHILDREN GROWING UP IN LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES. PEDIATRIC TEAMS WHO ARE INVOLVED IN THE ORGANIZATION SHARE BRAND-NEW, AGE AND LANGUAGE APPROPRIATE BOOKS AND LITERACY ADVICE WITH CHILDREN AND PARENTS AT EACH WELL-CHILD VISIT UP TO THE AGE OF 5. THE EFFECTIVENESS OF REACH OUT AND READ'S MODEL IS RECOGNIZED BY THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS IN A POLICY STATEMENT THAT RECOMMENDS EARLY LITERACY PROMOTION AS AN ESSENTIAL COMPONENT OF PEDIATRIC CARE. THE PROGRAM IS BOTH COST-EFFECTIVE, AND EVIDENCE-BASED: RESEARCH SHOWS THAT OUR PROGRAM RESULTS IN MORE FREQUENT READING AT HOME, ACCELERATED VOCABULARY AND CRITICAL BRAIN DEVELOPMENT.IN FY20, REACH OUT AND READ'S 34,000 PEDIATRIC CLINICIANS SERVED 4.8 MILLION CHILDREN AND SHARED 7.4 MILLION BOOKS AT 6,400 PROGRAM SITES AROUND THE COUNTRY. UNIQUE TO FY20 WAS THE DRAMATIC INCREASE IN TELEHEALTH VISITS DUE TO COVID-19, WHICH DEMANDED THAT WE FIND NEW WAYS TO MEET OUR MISSION AND DELIVER OUR PROGRAM. OUR INTERVENTION REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR ALL IN-PERSON WELL-CHILD VISITS, BUT WE ADAPTED OUR MODEL TO BE EFFECTIVELY DELIVERED VIA TELEHEALTH. THIS ADAPTATION, IN ADDITION TO PROMOTING DIGITAL READING RESOURCES, ENABLED US TO SUPPORT FAMILIES AND CHILDREN IN THIS UNPRECEDENTED ENVIRONMENT.
