Nancy, 

 

Hello.  I met you at the BEST Plus training in January. 

 

I thought of you the other day and thought you would be a great person
ask for a bit of help.  We are hiring a literacy specialist for our
agency and I was hoping that perhaps you might know of a few people to
whom you could pass on this job desription. 

 

It is an exciting time in our agency and we look forward to bringing on
board someone with some expertise in adult education. 

 

I would appreciate any help you can offer!
