Kathleen:

I'm so happy you are doing this, El Paso and adult ltieracy are so lucky to 
have you as a spoeksperson.

In reading your writing, I have noticed that when you give a description  of 
the community, a trip to a center, workers in a factory, a trip to the 
countryside, what you have to say comes alive.  Otherwise it's just numbers, 
and I relate best to these pictures that you write us on the list.  Maybe a 
couple of vignettes would get across to your audience the reality of what you 
want to convey, then you could add numbers.  These verbal pictures are data, 
too.  They contextualize what you say.

The best of luck, and tell us how it went.

Andrea
