I am the person who initiated the question regarding post 8 year projects.
  In Texas, to my knowledge, one of the three programs ending year 8 in 96-97
was continued locally.  That program is in Sequin, Texas.  It is also my
understanding that they did such through a variety of funding sources, one of
them being Americorp.

At this time, it is the intent of our school district to continue the
existing family literacy program that is finishing year 8 in 97-98.  We are
planning on a combination of local funds, Title 1 funds, Adult Basic
Education funds, and a variety of smaller funding sources.  

We are also planning to reapply for a new program with a new CBO and a new
range of services.  This would allow to sustain our already strong base, but
expand and reach new clientele.
