Description Program Srvc AccomBring Me A Book (BMAB) identified an agency, Stanford Center on Early Childhood, (SCEC) a non-profit currently working with underserved children, to continue Bring Me A Book Foundation's legacy and programs. SCEC will incorporate BMAB into their current program in which books are distributed to families eligible for Medicaid through pediatric clinics, primarily in San Mateo County. The best way to reach all newborns and young children is through the health care system because families trust pediatricians more than any other practitioner, and primary health care clinics are the one nearly universal point of contact for children before they enter kindergarten. Children will receive culturally appropriate books and productive literacy activities to encourage reading at home.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
