Dave,

The LAPS Program (Literacy and Parenting Skills) out of Alberta has just
produced a video on their program.  

Below is an abstract and ordering information for this resource.

LAPS Video : A Path to Learning (1999)
  Literacy and Parenting Skills (LAPS)

This newly produced video provides a brief orientation to literacy as well
as the LAPS program. LAPS is an innovative family literacy program designed
to provide literacy and skills to at-risk parents who wish such training.
Low literacy training based on parenting topics have been adapted to
strengthening the literacy skills of the parents, and to give them
strategies to model good literacy practices with their children.

To order the LAPS video at a cost of $21, contact : LAPS, c/o Bow Valley
College, #642, 332 - 6th Avenue, Calgary AB T2G 4S6, Tel. (403) 297-4778,
