Reach Out and Read Early Literacy Program

Reach Out and Read is a national early literacy program designed to take advantage of the access pediatricians have to children who are in their critical early years (6 months to 5 years) of cognitive and language development. Across Indiana, physician-based sites distribute more than 100,000 new books a year reaching thousands of Hoosier children and their families.

In the state of Indiana, physicians and nurses have been trained in the program, including the health care professionals at the St.Vincent Primary Care Center.
