A nonprofit corporation dedicated to the promotion of reading in Delaware. We are the only statewide organization focusing attention on the critical early years of child development.
We promote reading aloud to children in order to encourage a love of books and a desire to become a reader. We also help parents prepare their children to learn once they enter school.
There is a strong relationship between basic skill levels, teen parenthood and poverty. Weak basic skills increase the likelihood of youth pregnancy, dropping out of school, unemployment and dependency on public assistance.
