The California Reading Summit, organized by the California Reading Coalition and The Reading League California, is an annual statewide event that brings together educators, researchers, policymakers, school leaders, and literacy advocates committed to improving reading outcomes for all students. The summit provides a collaborative forum to share successes, examine challenges, highlight evidence-based literacy practices, and explore policies and initiatives that strengthen reading instruction across California. Through keynote presentations, expert panels, and discussions of statewide literacy efforts, participants gain insights into effective implementation, educational leadership, family advocacy, and systemic change. Ultimately, the summit seeks to build collective momentum toward ensuring every child has access to high-quality reading instruction and the opportunity to become a proficient reader.
