Legacy Community Health to
launch book giveaway in April
Baytown Sun photo by Alysha Beck
One-year-old Aleena Robinson reads a book with pediatri-
cian Dr. Carrie Chiu at Legacy Community Health Services'
San Jacinto clinic in Baytown. Legacy is starting the Lega-
cy’s Little Readers literacy program where children from 6
months to 5 years old will receive donated books at visits.
BIBLE VERSE
Hear my prayer, O LORD; listen to my cry for mercy.
In the day of my trouble I will call to you. for you will
answer me. ' Psalm 86:6-7
Legacy Community Health is launching
a program in April that integrates literacy
into primary pediatric care. •
Once “Legacy's Little Readers" is ful-
ly funded, parents will receive one book
at every well-child visit from when their
child is 6 months through 5-y ears-old. to-
taling to at least 10 books. The initiative is
made possible in part through the support
of donors across the community.
According to the American Academy
of Pediatrics, one in three children start
kindergarten without the language skills
they need to learn to read. Most recently,
AAP stated that reading regularly to in-
fants stimulates brain development, which
in turn, builds language, literacy and so-
cial-emotional skills that last a lifetime.
Furthermore, AAP identifies the link be-
tween health and literacy and encourages
pediatricians to distribute books to pa-
tients during well-child visits.
“Every pediatrician at Legacy is com-
mitted to building healthy and smart com-
munities," said Dr. Lia Rodriguez, medi-
cal director of pediatrics. “1 am proud to
promote early literacy by providing books
and encouraging my patient's families to
read aloud to their children daily.”
Legacy aims to implement the Little
Readers program in every pediatric clinic
in Harris and Jefferson counties, including
the one in Baytown and elsewhere. For
more information about the program or
how you can support the initiative, piease
