- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 03:00 pm – Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Celebrate National Read Across America Day at the Jacksonville Humane Society on Friday, February 27, 2026!

People of all ages are invited to visit JHS between 12:00 - 6:30 P.M. to read out loud to our dogs and cats.

From 3:00 - 6:00 P.M. only, enjoy special activities including:

- free books for all participants while supplies last
- shelter scavenger hunt
- family-friendly craft activities for the animals at JHS (for example, making dog and cat toys)

Reading out loud is a wonderful form of enrichment for animals in shelters – it lowers their stress levels, helps them feel more calm in their kennels, and also helps them feel more comfortable around people.

Reading out loud to animals can also be a great way for children to practice their reading skills in front of an adorable, nonjudgmental audience!

Read Across America Day at JHS is made possible thanks to generous program support from The Jim Moran Foundation.
