[AAACE-NLA] Adult Literacy at the US Social Forum

[Alicia Pantoja]

Hey Kathleen,
I'm also going, and I believe there is a whole group of people working in
adult literacy meeting up to share/exchange resources, experiences, etc.
Would you like me to send you that information?
Have a good day,
Alicia
