Here is another suggestion made by the coordinators of our own Even Start program at the Blue Gargoyle: ASK PARENTS WHO PARTICIPATE IN YOUR FAMILY LITERACY PROGRAMS TO WRITE THEIR OWN LETTERS TO REPRESENTATIVES AND TO THE PRESIDENT. If you feel it appropriate, it could be an optional project in parent education or adult education classes. It is important for participants to know what is going on, and I am certain they will want their voices heard. Furthermore, their voices are direct and compelling.
