DescUnited Through Reading offers military service members the opportunity to be video-recorded reading books to their children at home, and then the books and videos are delivered to the children so that they can follow along as their loved ones read their favorite story. This program creates and strengthens emotional connections between parents and their children, encourages literacy and makes homecoming easier. According to surveys, 95% of participants report a decrease in their childrens anxiety during deployment and 83% of service member participants report a reduction in their own stress during deployment.Despite the challenges of COVID-19 in 2020, United Through Reading distributed more than 31,000 books at over 750 virtual and in person events around the world. With the release of their self-service Android and iOS app United Through Reading was able to produce recordings in all 50 states, and many locations overseas. The app also allowed them to expand their services to include U.S. military veterans and their families.Desc
