Chicago Reads Together

Chicago Reads Together, a citywide early literacy initiative focusing on the critical ages 0-5, nurtures early literacy and language development through:

• story time programs at library locations for infants, toddlers and young children conducted by librarians trained in early literacy development and Story Troupe Leaders (storytellers and literacy experts).
• community outreach activities at day care centers, preschools and community organizations;
• professional development workshops for librarians, teachers, parents and caregivers.
