"The link between academic failure and delinquency, violence, and crime is welded to reading failure."

Learn how the Reading Horizons reading system can help break the cycle of reading failure and incarceration:
Over the past 30 years, Reading Horizons has been adopted as the statewide correctional literacy curriculum in 18 states to help inmates find reading success for the first time.
In a three-year study by California State University, students at the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation showed an average reading gain of 2.1 grade levels after receiving six-months of Reading Horizons instruction.
"[Reading Horizons] is the only thing that keeps me going in the morning. Or I'd be in my rack sleeping. Everybody knows that."
