Hi,
This was posted on the assessment discussion list. What comments do you
have? Does anyone know of an instrument that assesses the whole family? In
Ohio we use the Parent Education Profile to assess the parents' progress.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to throw this question out to you as well - what about
assessments in the Family Literacy area?  

I was chatting with a colleague this past weekend about this question,
and of course I wanted to find out from the collective wisdom what you
might do or use in terms of assessing family literacy.

This seems, on the face of it, to be an even more complex issue (you
need to assess on quite a variety of dimensions), and there seems to be
even fewer resources in this regard.  But!  I'm not a Fam Lit worker, so
I'm unsure.

Can anyone shed some light on this for us?

Thanks!
