Families Reading Together is a literacy workshop for parents
with
several objectives: to discuss the power of sharing books
with infants
and preschoolers; to help school-age children find joy in
reading;
to find out why reading aloud to children is important;
to enjoy books that are sure fire hits with adults and children.
Reach Out & Read San Joaquin, in partnership with the Library & Literacy Foundation for San Joaquin County, provide pediatricians with books to give out at well child visits. Also, volunteers read to children in clinic waiting rooms.
