The spread is worth noticing: public school space, a university lab school, two community houses, a church-run center, the Y and the YWCA, and private early learning centers. Early Reading First required grantees to work in existing programs rather than build new ones, so a Richmond grant meant coaching teachers in very different buildings, schedules and budgets.
