The "My Books to Me" initiative, successfully implemented in 2025, has been renewed by the Department. It provides two age-appropriate illustrated albums to each child in care under six years old, aiming to make books a reassuring companion and promote early literacy.
Through this program, 185 children received these books during festive afternoons featuring shows and snacks. These events were held in participating media libraries: Yzeure, Gannat, Saint-Pourçain, Domérat, Cérilly, Montluçon, Le Mayet de Montagne, Commentry, and Bellerive.
This initiative reaffirms the Department's commitment to giving every child in care the same opportunities to grow, flourish, and discover the world.
