Kevin,

FYI

Laubach is not taking over LVA.  The two organizations are merging into
one organization, named ProLiteracy.  The international and national
merger started this previous winter and is continuing it's work.
Sometime in 2003, the state organizations will be working on merger.

Peace,
Susan Hayden
