We can't wait to bring Reach Out and Read to even more Illinois clinics! Thanks in part to generous funding from Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), Reach Out and Read Illinois will provide mini grants of up to $5,000 to clinics looking to implement the program for the first time. These mini-grant funds will support book costs and will be provided directly into the site’s All About Books or Scholastic accounts. Please share this exciting opportunity with your network! #illinoispeds #reachoutandread #reachoutandreadil #allaboutbooks #scholastic #booksbuildbetterbrains

Thank you, Faber International and Penguin Random House, for donating more than $10,000 worth of books this past holiday season. This donation will make a positive difference for the children & families we serve in Illinois. Thank you @faberbooks & @penguinrandomhouse for your generosity.

Thank you, Advocate Libertyville, for sharing this photo with us! The clinic received a shipment of high-quality, diverse books to distribute at their child well visits. Clinics generally fund their own books, but the Reach Out and Read Illinois team loves to send books when we can! If you need books, contact Kristina Rogers (krogers@illinoisaap.com). 📚

January Progress Reports are now live! Log onto www.myror.org to complete your progress report before the March 1st deadline. All sites that complete their reports on time will be entered into a raffle to win a box of books and Reach Out and Read swag.

Thank you for all you do for children and families in Illinois! We can't wait to work with you in 2023 🎆🎇🎉

Join us on this last day of 2022 to make magic for children and families next year! Every donation allows more children's books to reach clinics across Illinois 📚✨

Reach Out & Read is so much more than a children's book...it's Magic! Help Illinois children discover the magic of a book and connect to their pediatrician and neighborhood this year - books in our program are just $3-$4 so every dollar really makes an impact 📚✨#givingtuesday #reachoutandread

Reach Out & Read Illinois is grateful for everyone that helps to fulfill our mission every day! We hope you have time this holiday week to snuggle up with your loved ones and read a great book 📚❤

There's a lot of conversation around health equity, and rightly so: research suggests that many disparities in overall health and well-being are rooted in early childhood. But how can one meaningfully address that in our healthcare system? Dr. Darrell M. Gray, the inaugural chief health equity officer for Elevance Health, joins us to talk about how to help shift health care from a transactional relationship to a deeper one using an equity framework. https://apple.co/3BQLBy4 @dmgraymd @Elevancehealth

Reach Out & Read is On the Air
