Our Vision

A world where every child is read to every day. 

Our Mission

Reach Out and Read gives young children a foundation for success by integrating books into pediatric care and encouraging families to read together. 

Reach Out and Read champions the positive effects of reading daily 

and engaging in other language-rich activities with young children to build 

early literacy skills. 

Reading together promotes healthy brain development, furthers language acquisition, and helps families build meaningful bonds.

Childhood literacy is an Iowa Total Care initiative. Studies show that people with higher levels of education tend to live longer, healthier lives. This means access to educational and literacy tools is a Social Determinant of Health. 

A World Where Every Child is Read to Everyday
