community read & Reach
Building a love of reading in our community, one book at a time.
Community Read and Reach is a literacy initiative dedicated to spreading a love of reading throughout the community by bringing engaging storytimes to local schools and community spaces. Through outreach at places such as schools, farmers markets, and community events, the initiative promotes the importance of reading and fosters meaningful connections between literacy, families, and everyday life.
Our goal is to encourage ongoing literacy engagement.
The initiative serves children, families, and community members by creating inclusive literacy experiences in both educational and public spaces.
We aim to normalize reading as a community value.
Community Read and Reach exists to promote literacy as a shared community responsibility by bringing storytimes and conversations about reading into everyday spaces.

Community partners interested in volunteering or collaborating on literacy outreach are welcome to connect.
