A world where every child is read to every day.

Our Mission

Reach Out and Read Inland Empire gives young children a foundation for success by incorporating books into pediatric care and encouraging families to read aloud together. Resources are available in English and Spanish.

Our Vision

We envision a world where all parents have daily, meaningful, language-rich interactions with their children. To realize this ambition, Reach Out and Read inland Empire will maximize the potential of pediatric primary care to promote the positive interactions that foster healthy development during the critical early years of a child’s life.

Our Program

 

Reach Out and Read is the only national early literacy organization working directly with pediatric care providers to develop the lifelong benefits that result from families reading aloud to their children everyday.

We share the power of reading 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.
