About
The Husker Civic Reading Challenge, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, is a part of the Husker Civic Challenge. To honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, UNL faculty, staff, and students will go out into the community and read to children at local child care centers. This event is hosted in partnership with Read Aloud Lincoln and Prosper Lincoln.
We will be presenting a training session in partnership with Read Aloud Lincoln on how to full an hour of reading to children and keep it engaging.
