Communities thrive only when all their children are thriving. That’s why our mission is to ensure children are successfully reading before 3rd Grade across Georgetown and Williamsburg Counties.

Strategies for Support:

  • Provide Support to students struggling in reading

  • Support professional development for teachers and volunteers focused on reading instruction and social-emotional learning

  • Empower families to help their children read and learn
