Nebraska Growing Readers is currently boosting book access and fostering interactive literacy activities for families with young children in the following 5 Nebraska communities:
- Crete
- Kearney
- Schuyler
- Scottsbluff
- Walthill
NGR is partnershing with local school districts, child care providers, the Sixpence Early Learning Fund, and other community groups. The program is not only distributing age-appropriate books but also offering support to help families read together more often and turn our state’s youngest learners into lifelong readers. Writer’s workshops will be held in each community to help local authors create new children’s books.
