Mary, San Antonio adult education programs, the Alamo Work Source Workforce
Development Board, and San Antonio employers put on one of the best one day
summits I've been to in a long while.  This initiative is only two years
old.  They started small and really focused on buy-in.  They did a terrific
job.  For a two-page summary, see SHOP TALK # 8 at the website hosted by
Texas A&M's Texas Center for the Advancement of Adult Literacy and Learning
(TCALL):  www-tcall.tamu.edu/litresources/workers.htm.  The SHOP TALK series
is an ongoing service we provide to our adult ed practitioners; all entries
are work-related.  The contact in San Antonio is Olga Escamilla at ESC
Region XX, olga.escamilla at esc20.net.

I would be interested in knowing if anyone has organized or participated in
a Workplace Community Forum or Summit? I would appreciate any information or
ideas  that anyone would be willing to share.
