Reach Out and Read Advisory Committee
To ensure that Reach Out and Read Indiana meets the needs of children and families in Indiana, ROR Indiana established an Advisory Committee, to bring together leaders across the health, literacy, education and development sectors to further the program's mission of optimizing the social-emotional development and school readiness of all young Hoosier children within an inclusive and culturally-responsive two-generation framework. The current Reach Out and Read Committee is made up of the following individuals:
