reading initiatives

Book-based outreach efforts

Reading initiatives are organized programs designed to promote literacy and encourage reading, typically targeting specific populations like children, underserved communities, or struggling readers.

Schools, libraries, governments, and nonprofits launch reading initiatives to improve educational outcomes: The city's summer reading initiative helped prevent learning loss.

The term often appears in educational policy and grant applications.
