This is why I think we should partner to get the CA portion of the NALS to get done. Currently the Dept of Adult Ed has not budgeted this (2002-3). I haven't heard any news lately from your ED. She was going to try to arrange a discussion with DHS around this and other issues and try to include me. I am confident that through a collaboration with you guys, UC Primary Care Research Center, Dept of Adult Ed, and DHHS, we could move forward. Any news on this front? If not, I'm happy to take the lead. At 02:24 PM 12/6/00 -0500, you wrote: >I've found a wealth of statistics on the national implications of low >literacy skills on health.
