Kids Who Read Succeed is the Ready Readers motto. Building those early reading skills is so fundamental to the children’s academic success in grade school, high school, and college because studies have shown if they don’t have those building blocks, then they won’t be successful in those later grades. Many of the Ready Readers participants are from low-income communities, the organization has begun focusing on toxic stress. Their tiny little bodies are filled with stress and that kind of stress has to come out somehow.
