EarlyBird

We have a reading crisis in this country. Sixty-seven percent of all 4th graders in the U.S. are not reading at grade level, yet research shows that with appropriate and early interventions as many as 90% of children can be taught to read. Developed and tested at Boston Children’s Hospital, EarlyBird is a technology platform that identifies and supports children at risk for dyslexia and other reading issues – even before they learn to read, so that every child has the chance to learn.
