The National Even Start Association announces a call for papers for the spring 2006 issue of Family Literacy Forum.

Family Literacy Forum is a peer-reviewed journal published twice a year by the National Even Start Association (NESA).  Family Literacy Forum is committed to bringing the ideas and experiences of individuals in the field to the forefront of discussions about the literacy development of families in home, community, and school-based settings.  

Family Literacy Forum accepts manuscripts that focus on practice, theory and research in family literacy education.  We welcome manuscripts that discuss the following: 
Ø Practical approaches related to working with families and literacy; 
Ø Personal essays, reflections or opinion pieces related to family literacy; 
Ø Research and evaluation related to family literacy program development; and, 
Ø Issues of assessment and standards in the field.
 
Manuscript Preparation
Ø Manuscripts should be between 1,000 and 5,000 words.  
Ø Submissions should be typed double-spaced, including quotations and references.
Ø Submissions should be typed in 12-point font.
Ø Include a cover sheet with the manuscript title, authors' names, addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses.
Ø The names of the authors should not appear on the text as submissions are reviewed anonymously by peers.  Instead, type an identifying word on the top of each page.
Ø Follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Fifth Edition, for reference style guidelines.  Present important information in the text and do not use footnotes or extensive endnotes.
Ø Endmatter should be ordered as: Author's Note (any general note about the manuscript such as acknowledgements, grants, etc.); Children's Books Cited (when including a children's book list); and References.

Manuscript Submission
Submit the manuscript electronically as an attachment to Claudia M. Ullman, Editor, Family Literacy Forum at cullman2@nyc.rr.com.
