On March 1, 2023 Kiwanis Club of Imperial Beach and South Bay will be launching our Literacy program in partnership with Readability, the first voice-recognition reading improvement technology. The event will take place at the Imperial Beach Library from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. At the event, parents of eligible K-6 students will be able to learn about the program, and sign their child(ren) up, and receive access to twelve free months to the Readability application. This Artificial-Intelligence (AI) based application is designed to develop the child's critical thinking skills, foster love of reading, boost the child's confidence, build a stronger overall academic performance foundation, and create a strong foundation for success. We believe our project will also incite a culture of visiting libraries; and checking out and reading books. In conjunction with the access to the Readability application our Club will have quarterly in-person literacy events to ensure ongoing support and commitment to the children of our community.
