Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library Is Back in Thurston & Mason Counties!

Child Care Action Council is thrilled to announce that funding has been secured to officially resume Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library (DPIL) program for local families across Thurston and Mason Counties.

Through this program, registered children receive a free, high-quality, age-appropriate book delivered directly to their home every month from birth until their 5th birthday. Book deliveries officially resume in early September 2026.

We extend our deepest gratitude to DPIL of Washington and our generous funders whose support ensures that early literacy remains accessible to every young child in our region.
