Dear List
The New York Times "City Room" blog is currently featuring Susan McLean, Executive Director of Literacy Partners. It's an opportunity for the public to ask questions and make comments about adult literacy. 
 
Lots of comments and questions would let The Times know how important our cause is. I encourage anyone interested to contribute.
 
Thanks from Bruce Carmel

The Literacy Council of Northern Virginia (www.lcnv.org) has classes in
two locations in Falls Church.  We also have a one-on-one tutoring
program for learners who are not literate in English and/or who are
unable to attend classes for other reasons.  Tutor and student pairs set
their own schedules and meet at any public place that is convenient for
both members.  Elise

Subject: [EnglishLanguage 4088] ESL Classes in Falls Church, Virginia

I just received an e-mail from a man (Somali perhaps?) who has just
arrived 
in the U.S. and is looking for an English class.  He's living in Falls 
Church, Virginia.  I'd like to be able to direct him to a specific
school or 
resource in the area.  Does anyone know where he could find an ESL class
in 
Falls Church, Virginia?

Thanks -

Joan
