Reach Out and Read
One of the premier programs of AAP-OC is Reach Out and Read®. This national program prepares America’s youngest children to succeed in school by partnering with doctors to prescribe books and encouraging families to read together. This early-literacy program focuses on children from 6 months to 5 years old, and supports medical providers who give books to children at well-exams, and providing advice to parents about the importance of reading aloud.
