About Reach Out and Read Colorado

Reach Out and Read Colorado is a Denver-based nonprofit that gives young children a foundation for success by incorporating books into pediatric care and encouraging families to read aloud together. By partnering with healthcare providers to provide high-quality books and talk with parents about the importance of reading aloud at regular wellness checkups from birth to age five, Reach Out and Read Colorado is helping families and communities improve early literacy skills and build healthy parent-child bonds so all children enter school prepared to succeed. To learn more, visit reachoutandreadco.org.

I have attended many Executive Voices programs for years. This was so valuable to our leadership team. It was also great to network, see old friends, and make new connections. 

Executive Voices is both a fantastic networking opportunity and a valuable educational opportunity for business leaders in Colorado. Learning from other leaders is a great way to evaluate our current plans and incorporate new practices.

Yesterday's Executive Voices event was incredibly insightful. The panelists were top notch and the real world stories and learning opportunities they shared were very helpful. I was able to take back some key learnings while also having an opportunity to meet some new people in the Denver community.
