Literacy - Reading for Life!
Our mission is to provide the tools and resources to combat this epidemic at the ground level. We put books in the homes of children and support parents as the child’s first and most important teacher. We plan to increase literacy and promote a child’s successful transition into the educational school system through outreach and awareness to parents about the importance of reading readiness for children birth through elementary school.
The goal is to increase the percentage of students reading by the time they enter kindergarten and establish literacy based resources for both daycares/nurseries and grade schools. Educational support systems are the key to keeping children in school, in the work force, off welfare, and away from criminal activities. This goal will be reached by the following:
Creating partnerships with targeted daycare centers and grade schools to bridge the education gap and help children reach their full potential.
Providing workshops for program participants to pursue academic excellence.
Hosting workshops for parents and early childhood instructors to reinforce the importance of early (birth to 5) instruction in reading.
Distributing reading materials and resources for youth and parents.
Promote reading during summer reading camps to bridge the learning gap and ensure students do not lose their reading skills. This is accomplished by reading books to children and providing books for them to take home.
