Board of Directors, and school districts and agencies throughout San 
Bernardino County that have adopted the County's Vision2Read early 
literacy program.

held on April 19, 2017 to announce a newly formed partnership between 
San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools, San Bernardino County 
Preschool Services, First 5 San Bernardino, and the Children's Fund, 
which will offer the nationally acclaimed services of 
Footsteps2Brilliance to residents in San Bernardino County. 
Footsteps2Brilliance will provide free access to early literacy 
activities in English and Spanish to all families with pre-kindergarten 
children.
  On behalf of the U.S. House of Representatives, I would like to thank 
all agencies, organizations, and volunteers involved in this 
collaboration to provide the resources of Footsteps2Brilliance and 
tools for our future leaders.
