SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — According to the San Diego Council on Literacy, 560,000 adults in the county read at a fourth grade level or less. Individuals with limited reading skills will have a hard time finding employment and suffer even more financially. That's why leaders in literacy are trying to encourage children to develop a love for reading before the age of 8, and before it's too late. Amelia Sandoval is a prime example of how things can spiral out of control without the ability to read. "I didn't read, not at all," says Sandoval talking about her childhood. There were problems at home. She was never read to, and school was never a priority. Without reading comprehension, the domino effect was already in motion.San Diego County Office of Education resources:100 books with strong connections to equity"I joined a gang, I hung out, I was on the streets," says Sandoval. "We learned to ditch the cops." By the time she was 18, Amelia was in the state prison for women in Chowchilla, where she spent five years. Her inability to read was her shame, and a secret she kept to herself."Just as good as I was at stealing stuff, I was good at hiding this," says Sandoval wiping away tears. "I had to protect the secret. It was the best secret I kept from everybody."But experts claim Amelia's path in life is one that's completely avoidable."60 percent of low-income children have no books at home," says Jose Cruz. San Diego County Office of Education resources:The importance of reading 20 minutes each day (English)The importance of reading 20 minutes each day (Spanish)Jose Cruz is the CEO of the San Diego Council on Literacy. He's desperate to get books in the hands of children. "We're focusing on ages 0 to 8 or 9 because we know that that's the best place for us to make an investment," adds Cruz. Cruz and the Council on Literacy are encouraging children to read at least 20 minutes a night at home. And here's an example they like to share. "Student A" who reads just 20 minutes a day will read the equivalent of 1.8 million words in a school year, building an extensive vocabulary. But "Student B" who reads only five minutes a day will have read less than 2 percent of that amount. And "Student C" who only reads a minute a day is severely limited in vocabulary and literacy. "You just need to read and talk with your kids," says Cherissa Kreider-Beck. FOR EDUCATORS: California Board of Education's English Language Arts/English Language development frameworkKreider-Beck is the English Language Arts Coordinator with the San Diego County Office of Education. She is unwavering in her claim that literacy starts at home and has recommended book lists. And as a county, we have some work to do when it comes to recent results on our students reading comprehension tests. "Our county is about 55 percent students exceeded or met standards," says Kreider-Beck. "At the state, we're about 50 percent, so the county outperforms the state a little bit, but those numbers aren't okay. We can't be okay with those results." "If a child is not reading at grade level by age 8 or 9, the odds of them catching up are 3-1 against them," adds Cruz.

With the help of the San Diego Council on Literacy, Amelia has learned to read. "It's very emotional," says Sandoval, unable to hold back tears. "So, it's made me really happy in life."Amelia graduated from high school in February and is now studying for her certification test to enter the field of cyber security."It's amazing because I always thought I would be in prison," says Sandoval. "I never saw a brighter future. I didn't think I would make it this far. I always thought I would end up dead. Or like I said, forever in prison. I never thought I would find people who cared about me. I never thought I would find a support system like this." 3983

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Amid high demand for sanitizer, several San Diego distilleries are changing their production process to lend a hand.Distillers like Oceanside's Pacific Coast Spirits, and Cutwater Spirits and Malahat Spirits in Miramar are changing their production output to sanitizer to help address the local shortage."This doesn't impact production too much as it is alcohol based and is similar to running any 'batch' of spirits," says Nicole Hammond, of Pacific Coast Spirits. LISTINGS: Who is open for business in San Diego during stay-at-home orderThe FDA has given approval for facilities able to produce alcohol-based sanitizer to do so, providing a recommended formula approved by the World Health Organization (WHO). "It just takes hours on the still ... we can produce four big barrels daily," Hammond added. She says the distillery is working with local corporations to fulfill orders and, if demand becomes too great, could look to partner with other distilleries.RELATED: San Diego hospitals start drives for personal protective equipmentKen Lee, partner at Malahat Spirits, says the distillery is currently changing its production to create hand sanitizer and has already started to run test batches per WHO recommendations."We have already run some test batches per the specifications of the WHO and look forward to getting some out to our community soon to help out with our county’s current needs," Lee said. "The turnaround is relatively quick since we already make the alcohol in house."RELATED: Another San Diego company seeks FDA approval for COVID-19 vaccineNext week, Cutwater Spirits will start donating their first batches of 80 percent alcohol sanitizer to non-profits within San Diego County, including at the San Diego Food Bank. "In response to the COVID crisis, we are leveraging our production resources to make an ethanol and glycerin-based sanitizer that we will donate to local non-profits including the San Diego Food Bank, our Miramar neighbors," said Shreyas Balakrishnan, general manager of Cutwater Spirits.Cutwater will also launch campaign supporting the food bank's virtual food drive next week.Vista's Misadventure & Co. distillery has also switched production to make hand sanitizer, with plans to distribute nationally.“Last week, our business in our Vista distillery and tasting room screeched to a halt. To survive we needed to change rapidly,” said Whit Rigali, co-founder of Misadventure Vodka. “Because of our still and industry expertise, we were uniquely positioned to pivot and adapt. To help meet the public’s need in this difficult time, within one week, we were able to produce alcohol for hand sanitizer, bottle it, build a retail website, and ship out over 20,000 bottles of sanitizer to both consumers and wholesalers."The company is working to fill large orders from clinics, hospitals, veterans’ groups, and local governments. 2904

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A stranger helped a woman through a flight from San Diego to Nashville in a random act of kindness caught on camera. Megan Schofield was on the Southwest plane and told 10News what she noticed. The flight had just started to take off when Schofield saw an elderly woman tightly clutching a young man’s arm. “Upon take-off, she mentioned she hadn't flown in 15 years and she was scared, and she said to the gentleman “Take my hand”, and he grabbed her hand,” Schofield said. Schofield discovered the woman was 96 years old and flying to celebrate her birthday with family across the country. “Seeing that, I told the gentleman I would want somebody to treat my grandmother the way you treated her.” Schofield posted the moment on Facebook, where it went viral. “Sometimes we're just so caught up in the hustle and bustle that we don't always see who needs help.” The man in the photo, identified only as Ben, emailed Schofield, saying he was happy such a simple moment could be so important to so many people. Schofield was inspired to pay it forward. “Yesterday on my flight home, a lady about the age of my mom… I could tell she was a little bit worried. She said “I don't fly, I drive” so I walked her to her gate and she gave me a big hug.” The elderly woman who received help from the young man is named Virginia, but we don’t know her exact identity. She was on her way to Kansas City. If you know her, email us at tips@10news.com. 1463
