Check out the National Literacy Summit Initiative (NLSI) web site at
<http://www.nationalliteracysummit.org>. Tremendous thanks to NIFL's Wil
Hawk for all his work on the site!

The online database for commitments is expected to be operational by the
end of next week. We plan to show it off during the February 13 National
Coalition for Literacy meeting in Washington, DC. It would demonstrate
your
organization's leadership to feature its commitment in the database at
this meeting.

Look at your organization's existing priorities and determine how they
relate to parts of the Action Agenda. Then, make one or more commitments
of new or significantly expanded work and resources over the next
several years
to advance specific Action Agenda items. On the commitment form, you'll
be asked indicate which Agenda action step(s) you're committing to work
on and what you plan to do for each one. The text box will accommodate
only up to
100 words for each commitment.

NCSALL has developed a Group Discussion and Planning Meeting Guide to
help organizations develop their commitments. You'll find it on the web
site too!

Please consider developing your commitment now so you can be among the
first organizations to enter its commitment(s) in the database.

Feel free to contact me with your questions or suggestions.
