The Joy of Reading

Not a literal translation, but a title that might do for a similar program in an English speaking country

Or: \"Reawakening Reading\" -- RE-awakening because it is presumably for adults who can already read.

"Awakening to Reading"

You could capitalize both words to show it's a Program's name and maybe, put in inverted commas...

Keep as is

Because it is the name of a program, keep as is, in italics, and provide a courtesy translation in square brackets, such as those suggested by the other anwerers.

Reading Skills Development

I think this fits better into the context of the program, if aranslation is needed. Otherwise, you could leave it as it is if this is acceptable.
Peer comment(s):

agree Clair Pickworth : I think this would be the best rendering; the others (awakening etc.) sound to literal to me.
