The Souns program is being implemented by individuals and organizations who are invested in efforts to ensure a literate world. The Souns Sites page is meant to assist those who want to find schools, centers, or programs that implement Souns or who want to be informed of Souns literacy projects. Before a site can be considered a Souns Site, it must (1) demonstrate good practice with the program, (2) have caregivers that have each had four hours of Souns training, (3) be open to occasional visits from Souns representatives, and (4) be willing to record progress through several non-invasive inventories. For your convenience, we have begun a listing of Souns Sites below.
If you are using Souns and are interested in your school, center, program, or literacy project being listed as a Souns Site, please let us know by emailing souns@counterpane.org.
