One can always refer to the federal definition to get people on the same page, but the general public does not read federal definitions. I have found that the best messangers for a reality based family literacy impact statement are members of families who have participated in a strong familiy literacy program and who through processes in that program have changed their lives.

What messages move them to action? Who are credible messengers? These are some of the questions we are trying to answer with a 'social marketing' project in Connecticut in order to develop successful outreach strategies. We are in the process of developing our questionnaires and interviews and are looking for other instruments that have been used to collect these kinds of data and the results. We are aware of the work NCFL has done with the Ad Council, but are wondering if others have surveys that get at these questions. Thanks for any help you can provide.
