Twin City Reads is the organizing force for Grade- Level Reading that uses a collective impact model to focus on reading across our community with the shared goal of reading on grade level by the third grade.  

Data will be collected and shared between community partners working on reading throughout Bristol TN/VA.  This group shares the ideals and goals of a network called “The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading” (CGRL).
The current steering committee for Twin City Reads consists of representatives from the United Way of Bristol TN/VA, Bristol Public Library, Bristol’s Promise: Youth Networking Alliance, Reading Buddies TN/VA and business community representatives.   This larger effort is designed to be a collective impact approach with foundations, nonprofit partners, business leaders, faith groups, community service organizations, schools and government agencies across our community to ensure that children succeed in school and graduate prepared for college, a career, and active citizenship.
The effort focuses on an important predictor of school success and high school graduation, which is grade-level reading by the end of third grade.
