Reach Out and Read Wisconsin

Wisconsin affiliate of the national organization @reachoutandread.

Giving young children a foundation for success by incorporating books into pediatric care.

[Reach Out and Read @reachoutandread]

"The activity of just bonding with your child and reading with them — you can never start too early."

@RORWI’s DeDe Williams told @620wtmj how reading aloud builds brains and bonds — and how we equip families with books and guidance to make shared reading a fun family habit.

"It’s a good thing to be able to teach kids how to read."

We know it — and @EricWimberger knows it, too! He recently visited a @RORWI clinic to share stories with little ones and champion early literacy. 📚❤️

I had a great time today at the Noble Community Health Clinic in Stevens Point reading books to young children as part of the Reach Out and Read program.

Reach Out and Read is a nonprofit organization that gives youngsters a foundation for success by incorporating books into pediatric care. It also advocates for parents and guardians to read daily with their kids to promote healthy brain and language development.

In honor of #NationalReadingMonth, I'm sharing my visit to @childrenswi Oak Creek Pediatrics, where I learned more about how @RORWI is impacting local kids and families. I even got to read a couple of books to the kids!📚

Thankful to @AspirusHealth for working to create a world where every child has the relationships and resources to learn and thrive!

[Aspirus Health @AspirusHealth]

It’s #ReadAcrossAmerica Week! 📚 Early literacy builds skills, fosters bonds & sets kids up for success. That’s why #AspirusHealth partners with @reachoutandread to provide free books at well-child visits, helping families make reading a habit from the start.

[Wisconsin Literacy @WisLiteracy]

Our Associate Director, Ashleigh Henrichs, was excited to attend @RORWI's first-ever benefit at the Building for Kids Children's Museum in Appleton last night - and a full day of sessions at today’s Annual Meeting.

When Rose Gharabeilou was looking for options to help other children for her ninth birthday, she decided on Reach Out and Read “because reading makes me happy, and I wanted to share the joy of reading with other children.”
