About this trial
The purpose of this study is to see if an early literacy and developmental program in addition to shared reading can increase developmental test scores at 24 months of age. All caregivers of infants in this study will receive shared reading training. Half of the caregivers will be trained in an additional coach-led caregiver-implemented early literacy and numeracy program. Information related to infant development will be collected from parent surveys, medical records, and questionnaires and assessments.
