Our Partners Policy

The Children's Reading Foundation welcomes partnerships with agencies, businesses, groups, nonprofits, etc., that share a similar mission to ours. Through respectful collaboration, shared resources, and combined expertise, we unite to strengthen early learning services to young children and families.

Key to formalizing a partnership is the prerequisite that the partnering organization promotes early literacy, parent involvement, and school readiness. Also, that it is legally organized and operated with a widely respected brand, and employs research-based, family-friendly practices. Our partners support early learning, elementary school education and community involvement.

The term "partners" or "partnerships" refers solely to a shared commitment to young learners, and in no way means that The Children's Reading Foundation is jointly and/or severally liable for any actions of the "partner." 

We appreciate everyone who contributes to the well-being of young children and helps them learn to read early and well.  Official partners listed on our website are approved by the Board of Directors.

Approved by the Board: August 18, 2009
