I am program coordinator for a library literacy program. I met with my library director yesterday to discuss this very issue. Funding for my library based, volunteer, basic literacy, one on one tutoring program has all but dried up. If I went on, I'd probably repeat everything you already said. I'm very concerned about the future of this program if I must chase grant money with "new projects" every year. We traditionally serve the most difficult to serve. Those who are unable to thrive in the local ABE program (which serves individuals with a sixth grade or higher TABE score), or who need more support than can be received in a classroom setting. I'd love to hear from others in similar situations. Jenny Ransone Adult Learning Center Franklin, IN
