Early childhood literacy is a major problem for a large segment of the population. Our job is to change that.
We're working to close the literacy opportunity gap among children ages birth to age six in under-resourced communities by helping families develop and practice shared home reading habits.
By making interactive reading a joyful & rewarding routine for all families, we equip parents to be their child’s first teacher, empowered to be active participants in their child’s education, impacting success in school and beyond.

She became a Community Ambassador 3 years ago while her grandson Raymond was receiving the red book bag through one of our program partners, ABCD Head Start in Jamaica Plain. She started out by supporting the red bag rotation at her grandson’s program. Since then, she has been an active volunteer and brings a lot of experience and motivation to support our mission. Even though last year was hard for everyone. It became an opportunity to connect virtually with her - she attended trainings, meetings, and family engagement events. Always willing to provide ideas and share with us and others the importance of at home reading routines. In other words, being a Community Ambassador.
In this interview she shares how Raising A Reader MA has being a great resource for her to continue learning how to engage her grandson while reading books, “I learned how to read to Raymond in a different way, when I read I look at the pictures and ask questions. He always ends up telling me the story and not the other way around.”
At Raising A Reader MA, we believe that caregivers are the experts in our field. They know what their children need more than any other person in their children’s lives.
We want to thank Juana for volunteering with us and for reminding that we can all raise readers.

Conoce a Juana.
Ella inició como Embajadora de la Comunidad hace 3 años mientras su nieto Raymond recibía la “bolsa roja de libros” a través de uno de nuestros programas asociados, ABCD Head Start en Jamaica Plain. Comenzó apoyando con la rotación de la bolsa roja en el programa de su nieto. Desde entonces, ha sido una voluntaria activa y contribuye con su experiencia y motivación para apoyar nuestra misión.
Aunque el año pasado fue duro para todos. Se convirtió en una oportunidad para conectar virtualmente con ella: asistió a capacitaciones, reuniones y eventos de participación familiar. Siempre dispuesta a aportar ideas y compartir con nosotros y los demás la importancia de las rutinas de lectura en casa. En otras palabras, ser un embajador de la comunidad.
En esta entrevista, ella comparte cómo Raising A Reader MA ha sido un gran recurso para que ella continúe aprendiendo cómo involucrar a su nieto mientras lee libros, “Aprendí a leerle a Raymond de una manera diferente, cuando leo miro las imágenes y hago preguntas. Él siempre termina contándome la historia y no al revés”.
En Raising A Reader MA, creemos que los cuidadores y padres de familia son los expertos. Saben lo que sus hijos necesitan más que cualquier otra persona en la vida de sus hijos.
Queremos agradecer a Juana por ser voluntaria con nosotros y por recordarnos que todos podemos criar lectores
