"When children can experience and express their fear, then that's when they can move on from it... 'words can bring some order to chaos and then make the difficult experiences bearable.'"

Join us for our in-person fundraiser at the Old Chicago Main Post Office on Thursday, June 16th! We’ll be in the Telegram Lounge: a spaced out, well-ventilated, beautiful space. Come enjoy light appetizers, beer, and wine as we look back on Reach Out and Read’s impact across the state and honor ROR champions and supporters. All proceeds go towards supporting our 127+ clinics in Illinois.
