    I just joined the board of advisors for Reach Out and Read Kansas City. ROR-KC makes literacy promotion a standard part of pediatric care so that children grow up with access to books and engaged parents and enter school ready to learn. Starting at birth through age five, pediatric practitioners incorporate a book and the importance of reading into routinely scheduled well-child checkups utilizing three components:

    ~counseling parents about the importance of reading aloud to their young children every day;
    ~giving the child a free, new developmentally and culturally appropriate children's book to take home during their well-child checkup;
    ~creating literacy-rich waiting rooms with volunteer readers, reading corners and books.

    I'm excited to help shape the future of Kansas City's kids and promote literacy in our community.
