Summary
The Beaver Island Rural Health Center introduced “Read to Succeed,” a program that gave children books to take home after checkups or other visits. Parents were encouraged to help select and read the books, and children could receive a different book at later visits. The Northern Michigan Hospital Foundation funded the program.
