Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library Launches Across Oregon
On May 7, Oregon state officials announced the statewide expansion of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. The announcement means that the state will work toward making the program available to all children ages 0-5 in every Oregon county thanks to $1.7 million allocated to the Department of Early Learning and Care (DELC).
“We know that every child is full of promise,” Governor Kotek said. “And the expansion of this program across Oregon is another key step we are taking as part of a broader strategy to improve how we support our kids as they learn to read.”
