Special Announcement

The National Center for Family Literacy (NCFL) and Fairfield Language
Technologies invite you to apply for a special grant to support your
family
literacy program's efforts to serve low-income, at-risk Hispanic
families.

NCFL and Fairfield Language Technologies will grant 75 licenses
providing
FREE access via the internet to Levels I & II of the Rosetta Stone
English
language learning software. The 75 qualified family literacy and family
education programs will receive access for 15 users each, at no cost,
for a
period of 1 year (12 months).

The National Center for Family Literacy was founded by current president
Sharon Darling in 1989. NCFL began with a simple but ambitious mission:
To
help parents and children achieve their greatest potential together
through
quality literacy programs.

Fairfield Language Technologies was founded in 1991 with two core
beliefs.
The natural way we learn native languages as children remains, for
everyone,
the most successful method for learning new languages. And interactive
technology can replicate and activate that method powerfully for
learners of
any age.

The software can be used for adding a new Adult Education resource to an
already existing Adult Education component or parent and child together
time
(PACT Time) component to an existing family literacy or family education
program. A 15 user, one-year Online Language Learning Center for US
English
retails for $4,485.00. The application period ends May 14, 2004.

Please log on to NCFL's web site www.famlit.org and read under
announcements
for more details on eligibly and how programs can apply.
