Hey, Cathy!  Great ideas.....

Since you suggest I pose a question to the list, here is the question for
this month.....EVERYONE can respond to this one....
What do you think is the best tips you have to give people beginning a new
family literacy program?  What advice do you have for
"new-to-family-literacy" folks?  What do you wish you had known when you
began in family literacy?  What helped you the most as you got started?

I know, that is more than one question, but really, different formats of the
same question....

IF you would like to get the NIFL-Family list messages just one time a day,
you can subscribe to the "digest" version of the messages.  That means, all
the NIFL-Family messages sent out in one day will appear as one e-mail in
your incoming mail.  First you must already be subscribed to the list.  Once
you receive the message that you are subscribed, then send a message to:
listproc@literacy.nifl.gov
In the body, type:  set NIFL-Family mail digest
There should be no other words at all in the body.
IF for some reason this does not work for you, just e-mail me personally at
nsledd@famlit.org and I will check it out for you.

And, perhaps you remember some great messages that appeared on the list a
month ago, or last year, or even FOUR years ago, but you did not save all
those jillions of messages....  Well, you may go to
http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions/nifl-family/family_literacy.html and
look those messages up in the archives.  Great way to research topics
discussed in the past few years.

NIFL sponsors about 10 lists total:  ESL, Equipped for the Future, Women and
Literacy, Workplace, Homeless, Technology, Health and Literacy, Poverty Race
and Literacy, Focus on Basics, and Learning Disabilities.  You may subscribe
to any/all of these online by going to http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions
