IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0ACCESS TO BOOKS - LITERACY LAB BELIEVES IN AN INTERACTIVE BLENDED APPROACH TO EARLY LEARNING. MANY EDUCATION CENTERS LACK THE NECESSARY TOOLS TO HELP BRIDGE THE 30-MILLION WORD GAP THAT EXISTS BETWEEN LOW-INCOME CHILDREN AND THEIR HIGHER-INCOME COUNTERPARTS. OUR BOOKCASE LIBRARY PROGRAM PLACES BOOKCASES FILLED WITH APPROXIMATELY 30 AGE-APPROPRIATE BOOKS IN CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTERS, STATE FUNDED PRESCHOOLS, AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. ALL OF THE BOOKS ARE NEW CHILDREN'S BOOKS SELECTED TO BE DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE, LANGUAGE-DIVERSE, AND CULTURALLY RELEVANT SELECTED TO SUPPORT CRITICAL THINKING, VOCABULARY, AND BACKGROUND KNOWLEDGE DEVELOPMENT. BOOK LISTS REFLECT COMMON CORE AND STEAM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, ART, AND MATHEMATICS) CONTENT.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0FAMILY & EDUCATOR ENGAGEMENT - RESEARCH HAS REPEATEDLY CONFIRMED THAT FAMILY ENGAGEMENT IN A CHILD'S EARLY LEARNING SUPPORTS LATER ACADEMIC SUCCESS. AT LITERACY LAB, WE BELIEVE THAT PARENT AND CAREGIVER INVOLVEMENT IS A CRITICAL ELEMENT OF A CHILD'S DEVELOPMENT. OUR FAMILY & EDUCATOR WORKSHOP PROGRAM EDUCATES, SUPPORTS, AND ACTIVATES PARENTS, CHILDCARE PROVIDERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND TEACHERS ON THE CRITICAL IMPORTANCE OF BEING INVOLVED IN A CHILD'S EARLY LEARNING AND HOW TO IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES THAT FOSTER A CHILD'S LITERACY, LANGUAGE, AND OVERALL DEVELOPMENT. WE BELIEVE THAT WHEN PARENTS, CAREGIVERS, AND SUPPORTERS GET ACTIVATED, CHILDREN ARE READY TO LEARN AND READY FOR SCHOOL AND COMMUNITIES GET STRONGER. THIS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO REACH A CHILD'S "FIRST TEACHER"-THEIR PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS AS WELL AS SERVICE PROVIDERS AND TEACHERS.
