We are a new family literacy program struggling with how to talk about
family literacy to potential participants in languages other than
English.  Are there family literacy program materials available in
Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, and Bengali?

My particular and immediate need is for Spanish translations for:
    family literacy
    basic skills
    adult basic education
    parenting
    parenting skills
    school success
    parent-child learning activities
    PACT
    GED preparation
    educational goals
    job skills

for a flier that my co-workers would like to use to inform and recruit
Spanish speakers.
I can think of ways to say most of these things, but would like our
language to be consistent with the  ways others are speaking in the
field.

Thanks for any help.
