"Reach Out and Read" now reaches military families 090407

By Rob McIlvaine
FMWRC Public Affairs

Through Reach Out and Read’s Military Initiative, doctors and nurses at 20 military hospitals, including one in Germany, will soon receive training on how to promote early literacy for children, and free books to be handed out to parents with young children – ages six months through five years – when visiting well-baby or well-child clinics.

USAF 1st Lt. Alice L. Shepard, a nurse in the Clinical Nurse Pediatric Subspecialty at Travis Air Force Base in California, and mother of an eight-month-old child couldn’t be happier.

“This is great. I love to read and hope to instill a love of reading. Even before he was born we read to him and some of the first things I bought when making his nursery were books.”

According to Barbara Christine, Program Manager for Library Programs at the Army Family and MWR Command (FMWRC), the "Reach Out and Read" program is a pilot project on pediatric early literacy among children of members of the armed forces.

State coalition groups will visit these hospitals to instruct doctors on how to counsel parents about the benefits of reading to their children. The books provided in the Reach Out and Read program were selected by the Library Program at FMWRC, and Congress provided initial funding to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) to start the pilot.

“Literacy is promoted by incorporating reading aloud, advice to parents, and books into the well-child visits at military hospitals and health clinics. The contract for the project was awarded to SRI (Strategic Resources, Inc.) by the Pentagon’s Contracting Center for Excellence (CCE),” said Christine.

SRI is the lead contractor who subcontracted the project to Reach Out and Read (ROR), a national, nonprofit organization that promotes early literacy by making books a routine part of pediatric care.

In 1989, ROR was founded at Boston City Hospital (now Boston Medical Center) through collaboration between pediatricians, family physicians, nurses, and early childhood educators.

“Nurtured by the passionate and inspired efforts of many educators, doctors, volunteers, parents, corporations, foundations and politicians, ROR has grown significantly from merely providing books in pediatric waiting rooms,” said ROR Co-founder Robert Needlman, MD.

This growth includes the training of doctors and nurses at Military Treatment Facilities on the ROR model where they learn how to select an age-appropriate book for each child to take home from every checkup, starting with board books for babies followed by more complex picture books for preschoolers.

USAF Capt. Minh-Thu Le, a medical doctor at Travis AFB, not only went through the training during her civilian residency, she also was trained by a pediatrician through the ROR office.

“Our trainer, who lives in the area, shared many experiences of the program from the “real world.” This was a great time for discussion with those of us who were familiar with the program from other civilian clinics where we previously worked. Because ROR already researched the age-appropriateness of each book, our training was more about what interaction with a book is developmentally appropriate for each age group,” Le said.

Along with the free book for every child, military healthcare providers will also provide advice and tips to the parents about reading aloud with their children. Each child who participates in ROR will start kindergarten with a home library of up to seven books, and support of parents who understand the importance of reading.

“Also important would be the chance to have the doctor sign and date the book. That way, we could look back and remember the different mile stones of our son’s development and who was there to share in those times,” Shepard said.

Military bases participating in Reach Out and Read will also create literacy-rich waiting rooms, complete with child-size furniture and bookcases, where ROR-trained volunteers will model reading with the children while their families wait for appointments.

“The Reach Out and Read model is a proven success,” said U.S. Senator Jack Reed (D-RI).

Reed, a member of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee, last year authored and introduced the Prescribe a Book Act, which created a federal pediatric early literacy grant initiative based on the ROR program.

“Reading aloud to a young child every day is a wonderful way to stimulate language,” said Perri Klass, MD, Medical Director of Reach Out and Read.

“It helps children love books and reading because they associate books with the parent’s voice and with the pleasures of listening. That’s the advice military doctors and nurses will be giving to the parents of their young patients at every checkup – important advice for all parents to help their children learn language and enjoy books.”

Reading aloud can help children feel secure and loved, and help families cope with stressful times, especially military families who face separation and deployment, said Klass.

“I also encourage parents to try and not dictate how a child interacts with a book. Not every child will sit still for you to be able to read a book cover to cover. A six-month old will be more interested in mouthing the book, which is appropriate. A 12-month old may flip each page quickly before you can even tell them what is on the page. Let the child dictate how you read to them,” Le said.

This is also a good time to foster a life-long relationship with doctors and hospitals.

“Kids love books and usually hate going to the doctor’s office. Hopefully, this program will enable them to associate coming here as a fun outing, as well as having the book remind them and their parents the importance of getting their well visits done,” Le said.

In addition to Reach Out and Read’s wide selection of “doctor-recommended” children’s books, children served by Reach Out and Read in the Military will also receive books designed specifically to calm anxieties about deployment and military service, such as “While You Were Away,” by Eileen Spinelli.

“I am scheduled to deploy next year. I read Spinelli’s book and found it very touching and brought tears to my eyes because it was so accurate. As a mother of a very young child, I worry that he will not remember who I am when I return. I think this book could give him a sense of what I am doing over there,” Shepard said.

Reach Out and Read in the Military will be serving more than 90,000 children, ages six months through five years, worldwide.

NPSP helps military parents with parenting challenges and demands

By Rob McIlvaine
FMWRC Public Affairs

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – The New Parent Support Program addresses the many concerns and challenges that military Families with children, ages 0 to 3, face during early childhood with an emphasis on Family strengths.

“The program is offered to Military Families to enhance parent and infant attachment, increase knowledge of child development, and provide connections to the support services that allow parents to become nurturing and capable caregivers,” NPSP Program Manager Rich Lopez said.

By integrating prevention education services and activities, NPSP involves both parents, if possible, and supports the Family’s adaptation to military life by enhancing knowledge and skills needed to promote healthy Family interaction, form healthy relationships, provide safe and nurturing environments for children, and enhance formal and informal support networks.

“While NPSP’s primary focus is child advocacy and maltreatment prevention through parenting education and support, NPSP helps all Families with young children by providing the skills necessary to promote healthy parenting,” Lopez said.

The NPSP services are provided by experienced, licensed clinical social workers and registered nurses who have extensive experience working with Families with young children and who are sensitive to the unique challenges facing military Families.

According to Dr. Lori Worley, NPSP & Military Child/Family Issues Program Manager., one mom’s life was saved through the interaction with her home visitor who noticed something was wrong with the pregnancy of one of the mothers in a class she was teaching.

“About two months ago, I was participating in a group of classes called “Mommy and Daddy Boot Camp” with my husband, Sgt. Sean Sweeney at Fort Lee, Va. One morning before the next class was to begin, I woke up more swollen than normal. Elaine Sexton, RN, and our home visitor, took me aside after the class and told me to call my doctor to schedule an emergency appointment since I was showing signs of preeclampsia,” Cpl. Gretchen M. Sweeney said.

Preeclampsia is a condition of pregnancy marked by high blood pressure and excess protein in the urine after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Left untreated, it can lead to serious, even fatal, complications for both mom and baby. One of the signs, although not conclusive, is swelling in the face and hands.

“My doctor diagnosed me with preeclampsia and told me if I hadn’t gotten to him my baby and I would have both been in danger. Since then, Miss Sexton has been very attentive, often calling to check up on me and has even visited on numerous occasions to make sure everything is okay,” Sweeney said.

Spc. James Clark and his wife Kristie at Fort Campbell, Ky. joined the program because they had concerns about their son’s medical issues.

“Our son Hunter has umbilicus hernia and colic and had been crying all the time, plus I had symptoms of post-partum depression,” Kristie said.

“Our home visitor, Mary Vozar from NPSP, was great. She was able to answer all our questions, and what she couldn’t answer, she was able to point us in the right direction to get those answers,” she said.

Sgt. David Brown and his wife, Karinna, stationed at Fort Bragg, N.C, have known their home visitor Diana McNamara for 33 months.

“We heard about the New Parent Support Program while attending the infant care and parenting Classes. At the time I was feeling overwhelmed and a little depressed. Diana is always bringing a lot of good information to me at my home,” Karinna said.

Diana, Karinna said, always knows what’s needed when she visits and is very “on-target” with helping.

“It’s made things easier by having her come to visit and helping me through some difficult times like when my brother died last year, and when my husband deployed,” Karinna said.

“She’s also helped us understand my older son’s developmental delays, and navigating through educational and developmental intervention services. Diana goes above and beyond to help my Family and I can’t express in words what she means to me,” Karinna said.

While all active Soldiers, National Guard and Reserve, and their Families within a 50-mile radius of an installation are eligible to receive these services, priority is given to first-time parents, single parents and dual military Families.

Families can enter the program by referral from a health professional, the command or by a civilian agency, or by simply requesting NPSP services through ACS.

Program activities include screening, play groups, support groups, deployment briefs, reunion and reintegration briefs and command briefs.

Classes offered by NPSP may include prenatal and infant care, home safety, children and the deployment cycle, stress management, and infant safety, to name a few.

Answer by Vivian Lee Rocks!! :)
acceleratorreader.com but you have to have a teachers license in order for your son to practice. it is a place where kids k-12 go and read a chapter book at least 100 page and an available author. then, after the kids have read ther book, they would be tested to see how they understand the book. it helps kids improve curriculm for their reading.

Answer by jolie
My daughter liked starfall, but she wasn’t hoooked.

She loved the Headsprouts demo. We’ll be trying it out for a short amount of time to see how it goes then will pay for a year or more. But she is six – so not sure how your 8 yr old will like it.

This was awhile back when she tried it, and in the meantime our wireless went down – we’ve had no time to fix it.

Also, I just purchased a reading program through the homeschool coop – but haven’t tried it, lol – just heard great reviews. It’s called “click-n-read” phonics.

Go here for the cheesy commercial:
https://www.homeschoolbuyersco-op.org/index.php?option=com_epp_offer&Itemid=570

It’s probably cheaper if you join the co-op (which is free).

Sorry I’m not able to fill in details on how “great” these are -we’re in the same stage as you-the searchign stage – and this is what we’re trying, based on research/reviews from friends.

Good luck!
