| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | Bring Me A Book Southern California: Southern California provides yearly access to classic children's literature to over 5,000 children attending state funded preschools, childcare centers, Head Start preschools, homeless shelters, libraries, parks, community centers and health clinics and feeder elementary schools not meeting academic benchmarks. We provide access to 375,000 books to our server families. Our families come from low-income, under-resourced communities. Children living in poverty have significantly less access to printed materials than their more advantaged peers. Bring Me a Book is unique in that it continues to address the three main issues interfering with young poverty learners pre-reading development; 1) lack of high quality books (number/selection) in early childhood classes and poverty homes; 2) lack of parent support to understand/practice pre-literacy home activities; and 3) lack of teacher expertise to increase their own & parents read-aloud and other pre-literacy skills. Southern California implements a fully integrated set of resources and training-to ensure that our resources actually provide the support, build confidence and ensure parental/caregiver home early literacy skill development, a stronger bridge between home and school, and expands early literacy competencies. BMAB programs include the Classroom Bookcase Library, a 30-Week bilingual/multi-cultural Take Home Book Bag Program, Professional Development to develop Early literacy skills and reading aloud and First Teachers Parenting Workshops that focus on the importance of reading aloud and the skills developed through conversation and discussion, modeling reading, and mitigating home challenges to reading aloud. Since 2013, well over 10,000 children have been graduated from the 30-week in home reading program. |
