Summary
Utah’s First Lady Abby Cox is rallying communities to revive teen reading habits, launching an “adolescent reading intervention” with educators and experts to combat declining literacy scores. She’s calling for a united front—families, schools, and businesses—to model and prioritize reading everywhere, not just in classrooms. Literacy specialists emphasize that older teens can catch up with targeted instruction focused on foundational skills like decoding, proving that potential isn’t the issue—it’s the right support and consistent effort.
