The key thing to note is that neither uses WIA funds for the programs they discuss. Presumably they have funding (which I know is inadequate and hard to get) from other sources to do these programs. The choice so many have to make over an over is: do we accept or seek WIA funds and prostitute what we know is effective practice, or do we not offer the programs at all? That's what I call a rock and a hard place, and many of us are wedged right between. In the end, most of us have to compromise and admit a little bit of both. The entire NRS system is a compromise, and like many compromises, satisfies nobody. For the Cause of Literacy for All! Debbie Deborah W.
