About the Program

Spread the Word Nevada is a childhood literacy nonprofit on Arville Street in Las Vegas that gets free books to kids from babies to teens, mostly through schools. For 25 years it has focused on children in low-income communities.

Most kids meet it at school. Through Kids to Kids, every student at its 81 partner schools picks a used book to keep once a month during the school year. Some partner schools also host Breakfast or Snack Time with Books, where families read together, take home a book and pick up reading tips. Books & Buddies pairs a struggling reader with a volunteer mentor who meets them at the same time each week. Ask your school office whether it takes part.

Families with children from birth to five can join Readers in Training. Enrolled families get new books in the mail each month and small group meetups with story time and crafts, in person in Clark County or online. Its playgroups are open to anyone, including some at the Arville Street office, and need an RSVP.

The Community Book Nook lets kids and teens 18 and under take home free used books. Teens 16 and up can sign on as reading mentors.
