NLA Information: LiteracyLink Forum Special Guest

[TCORDELL]

Thank you Noreen and PBS for the excellent success story about Molly
Robertson. What an inspiration. Anyone who doubts the capacity of a
woman to face the challenges before her need not look further. 

Are the policy makers paying attention to the remarkable determination
of women like Molly? Or should I say people like Molly? 

While I can't speak for others, my observation is that most of the time,
we don't want to drain the system, we just want a little help. Oh, to
have some genuine opportunity to fulfill our potential. I appreciate
those who have invested themselves into the lives of so many of us.
God bless you and thank you, toni
