Room to Read

Room To Read's literacy program supports children as they develop into independent readers and lifelong learners who are breaking the cycle of illiteracy within their own families. Our literacy program trains and coaches cohorts of teachers, creates quality books and curricular materials and establishes libraries filled with diverse children's books in local languages that can be enjoyed at school or home. We partner with local communities, governments, and the publishing industry To test and implement innovative models that help children of all genders and backgrounds establish foundational literacy skills and develop a love of reading, inspiring children To become life-long learners.
