Our Story

 Read With Me! Pittsburgh started their learning sessions in 2016 in the community room at Carnegie Library  Pittsburgh -Woods Run on the Northshore.  The community room was a safe space for social service providers, and support staff to  gather with their clients and share books, stories and personal life experiences for enlightenment and growth, one-on-one support,  whole group learning and read aloud group activities. 

 

Read With Me Pittsburgh is a member of the One Northside Education Committee.

Functional illiteracy is defined as having math, reading, or language skills below a 4th grade level. At this level, people may struggle to read a bus schedule, medicine bottle or job application.

"I was completely drawn in by the presentation, and I could see that our students were as well."
