Oregon Reading First Center: Oregon Reading First is a
state initiative funded by the Federal Government as part of the No Child Left Behind Act of
2001. Through this initiative, Oregon schools will receive support and professional
development to help schools achieve the goal of all children being readers by the end of
third grade. Through the use of scientifically-based reading research, we expect to meet the
needs of each reader and to prevent children from reading difficulties. This website
provides general information on our efforts as well as specific supports to schools
participating in the project.

Western Region Reading First Technical Assistance
Center: The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 commits the nation to ensuring that
every child in the country will learn to read well by the end of third grade. Reading First
has been funded at more than $900 million to strengthen children's reading skills from
kindergarten through third grade.
States and districts have received federal Reading First grants by writing high quality
applications and meeting stringent review criteria. Complex and ambitious, these plans merit
the highest level of committed support. To provide that support, the U.S. Department of
Education has funded the National Center for Reading First Technical Assistance (NCRFTA) to
provide comprehensive technical assistance to states and districts over five years.
The Center offers a national network of experts in topics critical to high quality,
scientifically based reading programs, including curriculum selection and implementation,
professional development, instruction, and assessment. RMC Research Corporation, the
national coordinator for Reading First technical assistance, oversees the activities of
three regional centers that deliver technical assistance directly to their assigned
states.
