Reach Out and Read is a national early literacy program that integrates reading aloud into pediatric care.

Through multiple peer-reviewed studies, the program model has been shown to further language acquisition, improve school readiness, increase the time children and their caregivers spend reading together and, most recently, improve well-child visit attendance. Information about the Oregon affiliate program will also be shared. Presenters: Samira Godil, Executive Director, Reach Out and Reach Oregon.
