The National Coalition for Literacy is working on a special project to
document and disseminate examples of how groups are moving the Action
Agenda's access and resource priorities forward. We have collected stories
describing notable efforts, large and small, as a service to the field to
inspire and to motivate. We hope that these snapshots will highlight the
variety of activities underway in our field that contribute to the nation's
goal of a higher quality and more accessible adult literacy, language, and
lifelong learning service system.
The first three notable ideas are available at www.natcoalitionliteracy.org.
They include:
*The Adult Literacy Media Alliance sharing a notable idea on distance
learning
*The Plymouth Public Library's Literacy Program of Greater Plymouth offering
a notable idea on how to insure the basics
*Santa Clara County Library's Vision Literacy describing a notable idea on
health literacy
