Description
REad to Grow is a statewide nonprofit working to improve early literacy for all Connecticut children by providing books, helping families share books with their babies beginning at birth, encouraging languae development and promoting an awareness of existing literacy resources. We meet families in the hospital when a baby is born, distributing a literacy packet with a new book and information for parents that helps them understand the critical connection between verbal stimulation, language development and future literacy. We also collect new and gently used books and redistribute them to children in need. In 2007, we distributed more than 100,000 books.
