Dear Colleagues,

It has been an honor and a challenge to be a "moderator" of a NIFL List.  I 
have learned much from all of you who take the time to engage in dialogue 
about health and literacy and I have been inspired by the work you do.  What 
I have enjoyed most are the philosophical debates and stories from the field. 
  However, for some time, my duties in my "real" job and personal life have 
limited my participation in the health list.  I am writing to tell you that, 
after two years or so as the NIFL-Health "Literacy" CoModerator, I am passing 
the torch to one of Adult Education's champions, who also happens to be a 
member of this list.

Deborah Yoho is a name you probably recognize from a number of eloquent and 
thoughtful posts to NIFL-Health.  Debbie is the Chief Executive Officer of 
the Greater Columbia Literacy Council of Columbia, South Carolina.  Deborah's 
breadth of experience in education, administration, and adult literacy will 
be a tremendous asset to the further discussion and exploration of the issues 
which unite health and literacy practitioners and the people they serve.

I leave it to Debbie to further introduce her self, her goals, and her ideas 
for NIFL-Health Moderation.  She and  Helen Osborne will make a wonderful 
team for this list.  I look forward to ongoing conversation guided by these 
two dedicated individuals. 

Sincerely,
Alisa Povenmire
System for Adult Basic Education Support
Lawrence, MA
