This summer, libraries, schools, and community groups such as summer reading camps, Scout troops, Boys and Girls clubs, and community recreation centers can participate through a specially designed program.
The L4LL basic Summer Reading Program is for infants to young adults and features our curated recommended reading lists of Latino children's literature in English and Spanish, a reading pledge, reading log, and certificate of achievement.The L4LL DIY Summer Reading Camp is for children ages 6-12. This program is specifically designed to boost literacy skills such as reading comprehension and writing through 10 themed (Art, Music, Poetry, Food, Folklore, Sports, Summer, Familia, Nature, Heritage & Immigration) literacy modules that each feature 6 literacy activities. This year we're proud to include activities written or illustrated by award-winning Latino children's authors and illustrators. Visit Latinas4LatinoLit.orgOur Mission
Hispanics significantly underachieving in school, beginning with basic reading, galvanized L4LL to develop the first, nationwide, online
children’s summer reading program specifically designed to reach, engage, and raise the literacy rates of Latino students and their families.
Opportunities are available for you, your organization, and company to join our mission today to raise literacy rates and invest in our tomorrow of educational and professional achievement. Your commitment will help us improve lives through improved literacy, one student and one family at a time.

The 2015 New Mexico True Summer Reading Challenge is a free reading program dedicated to stopping the "summer slide" by encouraging our New Mexico students to read more books over the summer break. Reading is the foundation for learning, and when our students read well, they are better positioned to succeed academically, in the workplace and in life.
