Family Literacy Starter Kit
http://www.aelweb.vcu.edu/pdf/famlitkit.pdf
"The Family Literacy Starter Kit offers general background information and an
overview of the issues for adult education and literacy staff members and/or
volunteers. It is written for adult educators who are planning a new family
literacy program or expanding family literacy-related services, but it may also be
helpful information for a new staff person in an existing program. It is intended
as a first reference, not a complete guide. The family literacy field grows richer in
resources every day, and we do not need to duplicate existing materials."
