The We Love Reading (WLR) program announces a new partnership with Saca Tu Voz to spread WLR online training. Saca Tu Voz is an association located in Madrid, Spain dedicated to the promotion and defense of children’s and adolescents’ rights.
This collaboration aims to extend WLR’s impactful online training to current and potential partners, as well as volunteers, on reading aloud to children aged 4-10 in order to reduce the children’s potential violent attitudes. This improvement is based on the benefits derived from the We Love Reading methodology, already demonstrated with scientific evidence: impulse control and emotional regulation, psychosocial health, improvement of filial-parental relationships, and empathy.
Additionally, these benefits could help children protect themselves from future abusive, harassing, or maltreating attitudes towards others, and could reduce the prevalence of maltreatment (including bullying and cyberbullying) and child sexual abuse.
