Our center is part of the Read to Succeed grant under the Dept. of Ed.  We
have 3 yearly Family Literacy Events where we serve dinner to our families,
offer door prizes and also have a workshop with literacy related topics such
as the importance of reading aloud to their children from infants on up to
school-agers.  We also give each child a good book to keep.  We have had
good response to these workshops and appreciative comments on evaluation
forms.
