I am associate director of the Virginia Literacy Foundation and the Workforce Improvement Network, a partnership between the Foundation and James Madison University. In my general Foundation work, I support community based literacy organizations in the state and am beginning to direct a pilot project that will decentralize such support by establishing four hub centers with part-time staff. The Workforce Improvement Network provides training and development programs (including a certification program for workplace program developers) and other support services for adult education and literacy practitioners around the state. I enjoy Focus on Basics and look forward to discussions about the articles. As you can tell from the description of my work, I can use a wide range of information and ideas because I am involved in such diverse activities.
