Upcoming PAWSitive Reading Dates where kids can read to Gracie: Tuesdays, April 9 & 23, 4-5:30 PM

PAWSitive Reading is a special program designed to provide young children with a stress-free environment to practice their reading. Therapy dogs are patient listeners for new and struggling readers — children who participate learn to associate reading with a positive experience and build confidence while practicing reading.
