A Blessing for Our Family: A Mother Sees Her Son Grow Through PCAT

For Marjorie, watching her son grow through PCAT has made a meaningful difference for their family.

Now in his second year with the program, she has seen progress not only in his reading, but also in his ability to understand what he reads.

Speaking about their experience, Marjorie describes PCAT simply: “Ha sido una gran bendición.” — “It has been a great blessing.”

She says the program has helped her son tremendously with his reading and comprehension and has supported his growth in many different ways.

But Marjorie also recognizes that the impact extends beyond her own family. She sees PCAT as a resource for other children who, like her son, can benefit from additional support as they develop the skills they need to succeed.

“Es un programa que ayuda a muchos niños como el mío.” — “It’s a program that helps many children like mine.”

For families like Marjorie’s, consistent literacy support can mean stronger skills, greater understanding and the reassurance of knowing their child has a community invested in helping them grow.

Why This Work Matters

Progress in literacy is about more than learning to read words on a page. Strengthening both reading and comprehension gives children a stronger foundation for learning—and gives families the opportunity to see that growth continue year after year.
