| IRS990/Desc | 0 | Early literacy programs reached 68,000 babies, young children and parents, especially those most vulnerable to low literacy. Targeting families with limited resources and reading ability during a crucial window for early brain development, these programs help parents become the first, best, and most permanent teachers of their children. The New Parent Program reached 10,000 new parents and babies in hospitals, encouraging parents to read with their newborns and visit the library. Every Child a Reader reached 32,000 young children and parents with a program that sends books home weekly, educates parents and motivates families to read together at home. In a partnership with WIC, 8,000 moms were educated about early brain development and reading. The Earl Boyles Library pilot project brought books and librarians to 1,600. |
