Chairs: Robert Needlman, robert.needlman@case.edu; and Perri Klass, perri.klass@bmc.org

The Special Interest Group on Literacy Development in Primary Care provides information, support, and networking for clinicians interested either in research or implementation of projects related to pediatric early literacy interventions. The SIG provides an opportunity for reviewing research in progress, coordinating research ideas, enhancing provider training on early literacy guidance and evaluation related to the REACH OUT AND READ (ROR) model of pediatric literacy intervention. This year, in addition to a general research update, we will discuss various aspects of training: of clinicians, readers, and support staff, as well as parents. We invite participants to join the discussion by bringing examples of their training methods. The session will also include a brief presentation on digital videotaping techniques.
