COUNCIL RESPONDS TOCONSOLIDATION BILL
One of the major duties and respon-sibilities of the members of the Councilduring the year October 1, 1982, to Sep-tember 30, 1983. was preparing aresponse to the proposed Adult andVocational Education Consolidation Bill,S. 2325, submitted by Senator Orin Hatch,(Republican Utah).
The Governmental Relations andLegislation Committee of the Councilstudied the more than 200 surveyresponses from state directors, publicofficials, adult education professionals,and recipients of adult educationregarding their views of the ConsolidationBill. Additionally, Council members metwith state directors and other educatorswithin their regions to discuss majorproblems, solicit their opinions and theirrecommendations regarding the bill.
The committee held special meetings toprepare recommended amendments tothe Consolidation Bill that would over-come the apparent deficiencies in thebill.
Although the Council voted to support theconcept of consolidation, such supportwas subject to the strict parametersdetailed in the report submitted February7, 1983, to the President, the appropriatecommittees within Congress and theSecretary of Education. The Council'ssupport of the concept of consolidationwas in no way intended as an endorse-ri.ient of Senate Bill 2325.

The Council's suggested amendmentswere intended to provide distinctpurposes for both programs within aspecific funding formula designed tomaintain the separate identity andvitality. of each program. In particular,_heavy emphasis was placed onstrengthening the ability of state andlocal systems of adult education toprovide programs that wouldaccomplish the following purposes.
1. Enable adults to acquire the basicacademic skills necessary to functionin society and/or to continue theireducation or training through theeighth grade.
2. Enable adults to continue theireducation to the level of completionof secondary school in order toenhance their employability,productivity, and ability to meet theiradult responsibilities.
3. Provide equal educationalopportunity for adult students, whohave special needs including theeducationally disadvantaged, thehandicapped and those with limitedEnglish proficiency.
Additionally, the Council, in response tonumerous requests from state directorsand other professionals in the field,recommended uniform procedures forreporting basic information in order toprovide comparative data for programevaluation.
Although consolidation was not affected,the C uncil believes that its recom-mend lions (equal status for bothprograms, standardization of the database, and a fair funding formula)overcame the obvious deficiencies of S.2325, and could have providedsubstantial economies and efficientdelivery of services for both prograrr

CRUSADING FOR LITERACY
The staff of the Jefferson County AdReading Program (JCARP) is conductinga crusade for literacy and over the pastfive years they've taught 3,000 peopleolder than 16 to read while retaining 78per cent of entering students. Theirstudents have accomplished unusuallyhigh reading gains.
Sharon Darling; who heads the program,is largely responsible for the.program'sinnovativeness and success. Frustratedby the lack of success of previous literacyprograms, she submitted a proposal tothe Kentucky State Department ofEducation to research the problems anddemonstrate a better method. She foundthat nearly one-third of Kentucky adultshad completed no more than eight yearsof schOol and about half had not com-pleted high school. In Jefferson County, it
,was estimated that 30,000 adults couldread neither the labels on cans norinstructions for a job.
Armed with this information and a \S57,000 grant from the KentuckyDepartment of Education under Section310 of the Adult Education Act,shebegan to design a program. The targetwas adults that tested below the sixthgrade in reading. The 293 students in thepilot during the 1978 -7't school yearwere all reading below the fourth-gradelevel.
The impact of the program is based on itsrecruitment techniques, ability to .tractvolunteers, staff preparation and itsinstructional design. Much of the recruit-ment is word-of-mouth from currenistudents, their friends and relatives. The
6
media and community organizations arealso used.
Staff training focuses on the criticalcounseling Involtied In the staff-studentrelationship, including the psy.chology ofdisadvantaged adults as well asteaching methods. The program hasattracted about 16 volunteers for everypaid staff member, Including VISTAvolunteers.
The instructional design stresses theacquisition of basic reading skills andindividual life needs Classes are flexibleenough to meet any work schedule. .
Teachers also visit students in their homes.Eacfi student has an individualizedinstructional plan based on the skills he ofshe already has. Teachers are trained tocreate support networks and theyencourage students to stay in close touchwith each other outside the class.
Approximately 900 adults are currentlyenrolled. In 1982 the personalachievement-of JCARP students wereimpressive: '"
24 per cent voted for the first time12 per cent obtained a job7 per cent obtained a better job13 per cer it entered anothereducational program5 per cent obtained a dri' 'er's licensefor the first time
These results have helped to generatepublic support for the program ah Borneinstances, private employers workdirectly with the program. One com-pany, for example, paid for adult basic
12
education for illiterate employees aboutto be affected by a plant relocation.
The-program was recognized as anexemplary one in September 1982 by theJoint Dissemination and Review Panel ofthe U.S. Office of Education. In June 1983the JCARP was approved for fundingthrough the National Diffusion Network. Ithas already been replicated in over 130counties In Kentucky, Tennessee andOhio. Staff members are continuing theirliteracy crusade by training others .
become literacy coordinators andtrainers of volunteers.

Mary Halter RemovesEducationdi BarriersMary Halter wants to make a significantdifference in educating adults. As teacher -In-charge of the Cincinnati (Ohio) CorrectionalInstitute (CC!) Education Program, she'scurrently removing educational barriers forInmates of the Hamilton County CommunityCorrectional Institution.
Mary has.set up and taught classes in avariety of adult learning situations, Including adrug rehabilitation center, a mental hospital,public library, evening classes and county jail.She has worked as an ABE satellite counselor,providing educational counseling and testingto students in adult classes at sites withoutspecial services.
She is well qualified for her position at CCI, arole she has held for the past five years. Shehas a bachelor's degree from Saint Mary ofthe Woods College and amaster's degreefrom Ohio State Univer 'iv .ine has completedadditional graduate st: rind is certified insuch.areas as administrc supervision,counseling and data prcassing.
Her program at CCI offers a full range ofeducational services to inmates, includingextensive diagnostic jesting, educationalplanning and counseling, and on-siteclassroom instruction: Since 1976 the numberof inmates participating in the program hasincreased by 130 per cent, which Maryattributes to a conscious effort to keep up withthe changing and growing educationalneeds of the inmate population. She hasincorporated into the program the completerange of high school diploma courses, on-siteGED and college testing, and hands-onvocational aptitude testing.
Along with her staff of 12 dedicated pro-fessionals, Mary derives much professionalsatisfaction from the educational successes ofthe inmates. One of her goals for the CCIEducational Program is to use computertechn9logy to teach developmental skills suchas problem solving, logical thinking andtechnological understanding. She also ho9esto expand community awareness of theprogram by involving more agencies in thesuccessful re-integration of ex-inmate studentsinto the community.
Mary plans to continue in adult education.She believes that developing and providingrealistic and effective educational andvocational services for adults is one way toensure that her professional endeavors willmake a difference. 7
WAITS REACHES OUT
Attracting adults in need of basiceducation skills was the goal of the WaftsOutreach Program in Los Angeles. Theresult was an innovative recruitmentprogram and integration of Job develop-ment skills Into the curriculum of the WattsAdult Basic Education Center.
Census figures and other statisticsdemonstrated the need within the blackcommunity for the Watts OutreachProgram. According to the 1972 U.S.Bureau of Census, the percentage ofblacks with less than five years ofschooling was 15 per cent while the totalpopulation was 5 per cent, The percent-age of blacks unemployed in urbanpoverty areas was 1-1/2 times the whitepopulation, Moreover, in the,,LosAngeles/Long Beach metrorSalltan areas,the median family income for blacks wasS7,573 as compared to S10,972 for allother families, Individuals living in theWatts area and agencies serving thiscommunity needed to be made moreaware of the existing educationalopportunities available to them.
The Watts program used a variety ofoutreach techniques. Some made use ofthe mcss media; others rellA oninterpersonal communications. Spotradio and television announcements,direct-mail flyers, bulletin boardannouncements in churches, bus benchadvertising and T-shirts were used tocreate awareness. The staff andvolunteers also contcted door-to-doorcanvassing and att ded staff meetingsof social service and employment

To increase the total enrollment at theWatts Adult Basic Education Center andreduce the number of students droppingout of the program, the staff emphasizedjob skills in all aspects of the curriculum.They provided drect contact withcounselors from various businesses tohelp students see the reiationshipbetween classroom activities and theworld of work. In many cases wherestudents' skills and abilities matched job

requirements, the staff arranged for jobinterviews.
Recognizing students' accomplishmentswas also a key to the success of theoutreach program. Each year cityofficials and other dignitaries andcelebrities continue tO join the staff for a.student recognition breakfast to demon-strate the pride which the communitytakes in th'e students' progress.
The Watts Outreach Program wassuccessful for many reasons. One primaryfactor was caring staff members whothrough their understanding of theirstudents' problems insisted that nothingless than their best would be accepted.

Sister Linenbrink TutorsDenver's AdultsApproximately 1,500 adults, mostly poor, inDenver have a place to learn, thanks to thework of Cecilia Unenbrink, a MaycrestFranciscan Nun, and 300 volunteers. SisterCecilia started her program, the AdultEducation Tutorial Program, about 19 yearsago. Tutoring is conducted during the dayand evening in classrooms located in sixchurch basements.
The majority of the prOgram's students pay notuition. About one-third of the students studyfor equivalency diplomas. The remainderlearn English or takeradult basic educationand career. development classes.
Many of the program's tutors are retiredprofessionals who provide students withacademic preparationand lots ofencouragement. Sister Cecilia's staff consistsof six workers who do everything fromdesigning curriculum to presiding over thechurch-basement learning center.
Sister Cecilia keeps a watchful eye over theprogram she founded in 1964 while looking tothe future. Her educational experience spansfrom elementary and secondary education tothe college and adult education level. Theseteaching, administration and communityexperiences have put her at home with avariety of people. . .from cote city residents ofdiffering ethnic backgrounds.to college andadult education colleagues, and even morebroadly, to the corporate and foundationworld.
She is a master of fundraising. She raisesabout $225,000 per year In state money andcorporate gifts to pay for books and staffsalaries. She also receives some federal fundsto support the English-as-a-Second-Languag3program.
Acive in professional organizations, she is thepresident of the Mountain Plains Adult
, Education Association and a member ofAAACE and the Minoru Yasul CommunityVolunteer Awards Committee. She is a strongadvocate for adult education programs andhas testified before Congressional committeesto address Adult Basic Education needs.
Sister Cecilia believes the biggest challengefor professionals in adult education is deter-mining what direction programs should takeas we enter the age of high technology andcomputers. She is concerned about theimpact of advanced technological develop-ments on low-income adults, who are oftenthe last to learn relevant skills. 9
WEST VIRGINIA'S READING TEAM
Professional stall and a corps ofvolunteers are working together In WestVirgibia to make instruction in basic skillsmore readily available to adults.
In 1980 Linda Andresen, learning centercoordinator of the Garnet Career andLearning Center in Charleston, WestVirginia, developed a proposal toextend Adult Basic Education (ABE) serv-ices to the non-reader through volunteerefforts. She sought funding of theprogram through 310 grant moniesdesignated for special projects, The plancalled for professional ABE staff membersto initiate and support local affiliates ofLiteracy Volunteers of American, Inc.(LVA), a national volunteer organization.
LVA, .a nonprofit organization head-quartered in Syracuse, New York, trainsvolunteers to teach functionaiiy Illiterateadults how to read and to teach newAmericans how to speak English.Teaching is done on a one-to-one basisand training programs are conductedthrough community-based LVA organ-izations. LVA has more than 8,000volunteer tutors working with over 13,000adult students through 130 programs in25 stales and three provinces ofCanada.
The match was perfect. Both the WestVirginia ABE program and LVA weredesigned to meet the heeds of adults in,basic reading and English as a SecondLanguage (EL) LVA was also selectedbecause its teaching techniques used avariety of methods, rather than depend-ing on one technique.
Once the LVA affiliate has been organ-ized, ABE pi ofessional staff membersgenerally volunteer their time after workhours to provide assistance.
10
LVA tutors are requested to attend an18-hour training workshop and oneinservice session during each tutoringyear. They are also asked to make acommitment to work with a student withwhom they are matthed for at least oneyear.
In Kanawha County and other counties inthe state ABE professionals have con-ducted workshops for tutors in basicreading and ESL. Other inservice sessionshave covered such areas as creativetutoring techniques and learningdisabilities in adults.
The ABE professionals serve a meaningfulsupport system for tutors and students. InKanawha County they also coordinate alocal LVA office and serve on the board .
of directors of Literacy Volunteers of WestVirginia and Kanawha County. At theGarnet Career Center the ABE staff hastrained approximately 75 tutors whohave served 85 students in the past twoyears, 4
The LVA program in West Virginia Isexpanding rapidly. Theraare now a totalof 12 provisional to full affiliates whichserve approximately 16 of 55 counties.Local affiliates are co-supported by avariety of community grdups that shareABE's concern for adult literacy. TheAltrusa Club of Charleston, for 3xample,has worked in cooperation with ABE andis one of the major financial supporters ofthe program.
ABE staff in West Virginia believe the keyto the effectiveness of yolunteerism inadult education is the involvement oftrained professionals. The support ofprofessionals, who lend their academicand financial expertise, is essential to astable, on-going volunteer program.

Eva WarnerMakes Life RicherEva Warner seems to have been born toteach. At age 4 her first students were a dolland several sticks of wood.
She has never stopped teaching.
Today she is supervisor of the Adult BasicEducation (ABE) program for three counties inthe mountainous northeast corner of Vermontknown as the Northeast Kingdom. During theintervening 30 years or so, starting at age 17,she was an elementary school teacher.
Recognizing that all children do not learn atthe same pace, she developed individualizedlearning programs in reading, social studies,math and spelling. While teaching young-sters, she became interested in instructingadults and through a maitiest grant looked forvays to help undereducated adults.'
"I went strictly by instinct In those early days,"gthe laughs, recalling that she felt a bit weak in
the knees as she stood before her first class ofadults and wondered what to ( lo with them.
Her instincts served her well and Adult BasicEducation grew rapidly. She was a pioneer indeveloping basic education programs foradults ( d she has always looked ahead.
Eva started with a center with two classroomsin Newport in 1969. She now has 12 rooms, twoadded recently to house a computer centerand video library. She also coordinates adultclasses at minicenters in several towns.
Early in her new work, Eva wanted to reachthose who were housebound and originatedtheiwme tutor program in Vermont. Throughher "Education in Kitchens" plan, she trainedcommunity aides to work with adults in theirhomes.

SAN DIEGO PROGRAM REDESIGNED TO MEET
The continuing education program at theSan Diego Community College Districthas changed dramatically over the pastfour years as staff members have foundbetter ways to meet the educationalneeds of their students.
Prior to 1980, .:;udents were placed inclasses based solely on their proficiencyin English or basic skills. Instruction, for themost part, was general with an emphasison the basics. But the influx of refugeestudents from Vietnam, Laos and Cam-bodia called for a reassessment of theprogram.
Many of these students were not literate intheir native language or English andmany needed employment to supportthemselves and their families in as short otime as possible, Most were belowpoverty level and did not have occupa-tional skills which were transferable to thelocal labor market.
The staff concluded that students' goalswould be better realized if instructionwere more carefully focused. Theyredesigned the program to satisfy threeprimary needs of their students. Theprogram was strengthened to helpstudents function effectively in urbanAmerica and suc "eed in vocational skillstraining or employment. A third objectivewa: to assist students in continuing theireducation in a high school diplomaprogram or entering a comrritinitycollege or university,
12
As a result of the restructuring, studentsare now placed in English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) classes not only on thebasis of their level of English proficiency,but also based on an evaluation of theireducational backgrounds, needs andgoals. Within this new program design,specific classes are offered which focuson life-skill competencies in the context ofbasic literacy, general survival and pre-vocational, vocational or academic ESL.
Staff members individualize programs forstudents in the Adult Basic Education(ABE) program based on an evaluation oftheir competency in basic and life skillsal id their personal goals and objectives.The ABE and ESL programs feed directlyinto the competency-based high schooldiploma or GED program.
ABE and ESL classes now comprise 50 to55 per cent of the San Diego program.Students may enter at any time of theyear and progress at their own rate. Formany, the typical class schedule variesfrom three to six hours per day, fivte daysa week. Students may also enroll in anindependent learning center whichprovides greater flexibility in scheduling.
A determination of how well thesestudents have done in achieving compe-tency in these programs has been madepossiblethrough the development andimplementation of the California AdultStudent Assessment System (CASAS), aproject funded under Section 310 of the

RAISEING SELFCONFIDENCEOF DISABLED ADULTS
An Arizona Exemplary 310 Project is,RAISE-ing students' sense of personalworth and self-confidence whiledeveloping their ability to attain self-sufficiency.
Established in 1980 to meet the basiceducational needs of the disabledstudent, RAISE stands for RehabilitativeAdult Independent Skills Education. It istruly a unique project of the Pima CountyAdult Education Program that is filling agap in the Tucson community's adultbasic education services.
The program is aimed at mentally and/orphysically disabled adults, includingdeaf, hard of hearing, blind, visuallyimpaired, multiple handicapped andemotionally handicapped.
RAISE is an instructional model based onstudents reaching competency in the lifeskill areas of financial management,communications and language pro-ficiencies, personal iealth proficiencies,social (work) proficiencies and pre-vocational proficiencies. Eachknowledge area contains six relatedcomponents with numerous teachingpackets: The packets cover Specificacademic, daily living and work-relatedskills at varying levels.
The results of tests given to students aftercompleting the RAISE materials haveindicated that 92 per cent of the studentsmade measurable progress directlyaffecting individual performance in dailylife skills.
The initial concept of RAISE was devel-oped and established under an AdultEducation Act/Title III, Section 310
14
Demonstration Project. The project stafffound a lack of adult-oriented teachingmaterials for educating the adultdisabled. As a result, they developed thefollowing:
RAISE I Manual for educatingTrainable Mentally Retarded (TMR)adults. The 143-page manual explainshow to develop learning componentsand teaching packets as well as abibliography of resources, course outline,pre- and post-tests, objectives, and thesuggested sequence for presentingmaterials.
Five sets of slides to supplement theRAISE I curriculum for TMR adults.
RAISE II Manual for use with adultswho are Educable Mentally Retarded(EMR), physically disabled or havemultiple disabilities. The 284-pagemanual and 91-page addendumprovide similar types of materialsincluded in the RAISE I manual for thesespecific adult learners.
Five sets of educational slidesprepared for use with mentally and/orphysically disabled adult learners tosupplement RAISE II.
. .
Five audIO-visual presentations forteaching mentally and/or physicallydisabled adults about such subjects ascommunication and language skills,living skills and nutrition.
The Project RAISE staff has shared theresults of Its project with other pro-fessionals 'nationwide. Approximately 500RAISE I and II how-to manuals have beendistributed. In addition, staff membershave conducted statewide workshopsdemonstrating successful elements usedin the project. The project has also
20
resulted in linking staff members withothers assisting disabled adults in theTucson community.
Their outstanding efforts have not beenoverlooked, The RAISE staff has receivedmany plaudits for its work in educatingdisabled adults. Project RAISE was one of11 programs in Arizona in 1982 to bevalidated by the State Department ofEducation. In 1981 and 1982 theGoodwill Industries of Tucson presentedProject RAISE staff with its CooperativeAgency of the Year Award.
Commenting about the project, GoodwillPresident Michael Buus cited the benefitsof the program for their clients. "For manyyears Goodwill Industries sufferedbecause of the lack of ackilt basiceducation courses," he explained."Many of our clients, although makingprogress in vocational skills and workadjustment training, lacked the neces-sary basic educational skills to fully par-ticipate in the community or hold downcompetitive jobs. Project RAISE has filledthe grip, not only for our clients but forother individuals in the community whoare in need of these services."

WICHITA EDUCATORS WORK TOGETHER
Interagency cooperation and variedspecialized programs are the hallmarksof the Dunbar Adult Center, which lastyear served approximately 2,000economically disadvantaged adults inWichita, Kansas.
The Dunbar Center, part of the continuingeducation program of the WichitaUnified Schools, works closely with localagencies, organizations and the areavocational school to meet the needs of itsstudents.
Wichita's Adult Performance Level (APL)program was one of the first programs ofits kind in the country. When studentshave completed the program'scompetency-based curriculum, they'veearned a diploma from Wichita HighSchool.
Life skills are an essential component ofthe center's Aault Basic Education (ABE)curriculum, ABE classes cies offered in themornings and ev6r,ings Monday throughThursday.
In a cooperative effort with the FirstPresbyterian Church of Wichita CatholicCharities Perpetual Help Center, theDunbar Center offers limited-Englishspeaking adults individual tutoring.Classes for students for whom English is asecond language are provided througha volunteer program, which often in-cludes grandparents.
The center's GED program offers not onlyGED preparation, but also a Wichita HighSchool diploma upon completion ofAmerican government and history. Tutor-counselors also assist students who arestudying at home for the GED.
Two ABE classes at the Dunbar Center areoperated through Project TARGET,funded by 310 grant monies. The project
98
was designed to help ABE studentsachieve their goals more rapidly bytargeting toward deficiencies related tothese94s.Dunbar and Timbers, a facility designedto provide the skills necessary to main-stream handicapped adults, havedeveloped a specialized life-skills curric-ulum for the handicapped. Through thisspecial arrangement, these adults areprovided access to regular ABE and GEDclasses at the Dunbar Center.
The Dunbar staff also works with teachersat an area vocational school and thecontinuing education program toprovide training in remedial skills at twobasic skill centers. Students unable toqualify for vocational programs becauseof basic -skill deficiencies are referred tothe pre-vocational basic skills program atthe Dunbar Center. Here the studentsreceive one-on-one training to gain theskills necessary for entrance into thevocational program.
Dunbar also teaches classes in basicreading for nonreaders and adultsreading below the third-grade level.Instructors use phonics, sight words andcontext techniques to develop theirstudents' reading ability.
The success of the Dunbar Adult Center isdue to the diversity of its programming,an exceptional teaching staff, andcommitment of Wichita's educationalleaders to work together to help thoseless educationally advantaged achievefunctional literacy. The program under-scores the importance of strong ties be-tween adult education and vocationaleducation and a public school systeMthat has encouraged program changesto help adults achieve success in basiceducation.

Glenna Williams MakesDramatic Changes InStudents' Lives
Home Instructor Glenna Williams Is trulyaffecting, not only educational growth, butalso dramatic changes in the daily lives andfuture goals of those she serves. She has aninnate ability to assist the students she serves.
For the past 11 years, Glenna has served as ahome Instructor in the Scioto Valley LocalSchool's Adult Basic Education Program. Eachworking day, Glenna rises early, loads her carwith instructional materials, and sets out on thehilly roads of rural Pike County, Ohio, to serveher home-based ABE students.
Glenn's daily routine Involves visiting thehomes of from six to eight adult students, whocannot attend the ABE Learning Center. Shetutors approximately 35 students each week.
In some homes, more than one adult In thefamily is involved in the program. In someareas, she may arrange for two or threepersons to meet and work together.
As part of a multi-year ABE DemonstrationProject funded under the Appalachian AdultEducation Center at Morehead (Kentucky)State University, Scioto Valley Schoolsdeveloped a program to demonstrate theeffective use of highly trained paraprofes-sionals to deliver Adult Basic Education serv-ices to under, and often uneducated, ruralisolated adults.

Glenna was Initially employed because of herbackground experiences, her knowledge ofthe community, and her demonstrated abilityto meet and work with the clients she was toserve. She has developed a thorough under-standing of the procedures, techniques, andeffective selection and use of instructionalmaterials used in the program.
Gienna has also been involved in therecruiting effort. From the first year to thepresent, there has been a waiting-list for homeinstruction services.
Realizing that other human and family needsoffen take precedence over educationalneeds, Glenna has been highly effective ngiving and finding assistance for thosestudents truly In need. She gives much of herown time and energy collecting food andclothing and/or contacting agencies andcommunity groups to assist in alleviatingpersonal and family problems. She isextremely tactful in her approaches foproblem solving so as not to injure the pride ofher students.
Dealing with adversity is a daily occurrence inGlenna's work: She carries a bag filled withstick candy, coloring bookS, and other itemsneeded to occupy the children in manyhomes while she checks her students' pastweek's work or gives tutorial assistance indifficult learning sequences.
For Glenna, learning becomes a family affairParents and children work together in thestudy and learning process. Glenna believesthat a number of adults enroll in order to bebetter able to help their children with theirpublic school studies.
To say that Glenna's home instructionprogram is a success would be an under-statement. One needs only to look at thehundreds of hours of independent studylogged by her students each year, theiramazing academic gains and the numbersof students who successfully pass the GED Testsand receive their high school equivalency.
Each year (-,enna has helped students togain employment and leave the publicassistance roles. Many others have betteroutlooks on life and are setting redistic long-range goals for themselves and their children.

THE ADULT EDUCATION ACT,AN HISTORICAL OVERVIEW
Federal funds for literacy programs were madeavailable in 1918 with the passage of theImmigration and Nationality Act, which assistspublic schools in providing English language,history, government and citizenship programs forcandidates for naturalization. The federal role inthis activity is limited to providing candidates withinformation about the availability of programsand providing schools with textbooks and othercurriculum materials.
The hiStoric roots of basic educational skillsprograms for adults are more difficult to tracethan those of employee development andmanpower programs. This Is due in part to thelack of general agreement about the meaning ofthe term "basic skills," and in part to the inclusionof basic education components in programsinitiated for other purposes. The manpower andvocational education legislation described in thepreceding section are examples of theiattersituation.
The Smith-Lever Act (1914), which established theCooperative Extension Service, is the first piece ofmajor legislation requiring the matching offederal funds with state, local and/or Institutionalmonies. Grants to states are provided for thepurpose of helping people not enrolled In schoolto understand and utilize effective practices infarming, marketing, family living and communitydevelopment. Programs are also available toassist adults in Identifying and solving family andcommunity problems. These services can appro-priatily be included in a listing of federallyfunded basic skills programs.
During the 1960's, Extension Service programs,which had previously focused attention onproviding educational services to sole agri-cultural and rural problems, began to offerassistance to the urban poor and for the develop-ment of community resources in urban areas.
The Library Service Act (1956) brought publiclibrary programs to rural adults. The 1964 LibraryServices and Construction Act (amended in 1970)Is of particular Importance In the history of publicadult education because the fund3 madeavailable under these enactments stimulated thedelivery of library services to economically andsocially disadvantaged, handicapped, home-bound and institutionalized adults.
24
Althbugh these programs, and those described Inthe earlier sections of this study, have servedmillions of Americans, millions more wereexcluded from participation. Some adults lackedthe basic educational skills necessary forparticipation; others were excluded because oftheir age, their geographical location, their labormarket status or because of a physical or mentalhandicap. Even the G.I. Bill (the VeteransReadjustment Benefits Act), which opened neweducational opportunities to many who werepoor, was available only to those who were ableto qualify for and enter military service,
In 1962, the Committee on Education and Labor,U.S. House of Representatives, conductedhearings on the need for categorical federalsupport for adult basic education. Two bills werethen being considered that would have encour-aged the development of state programs of adultbasic education. In 1963, an Adult BasicEducation Act was again proposed anddefeated.
By 1964, although the general employmentpicture was improving, disproportionately highconcentrations of unemployment remained forBlacks, for non-English-speaking adults and for theundereducated. Neither manpower develop-ment and vocational education programs norfiscal and monetary policies were effective Inaltering thiS situ hen. The Civil Rights Act (1964)and subseque Ix,cutive Orders that prohibiteddiscrimination i. N Iployment practices based onrace, sex, age, rei:gion or national origin still leftlarge numbers of adults with limited educationalattainment at a competitive disadvantage in thelabor market, and with the inability to takeadvantage of other social services generallyavailable to the better educated segment ofsociety.
With the passage of the E ,conomlc OpportunityAct (1964), the Adult Basic Education Programwas established. This program sought to remedythe inequities of educational disadvantage byoffering persons 18 years of age (16 years ofage P.L. 91-230: 1970) and older the oppor-tunity to develop reading, writing, language andarithmatic skills io enable them to obtain or retainempicvment and otherwise participate more fullyas produc+ive and responsible citizens.
30
The Office of Economic Opportunity providedfunds to the U.S. Office of Education to administerthe program until the Adult Education Act (1966)placed the program entirely within the U.S. Officeof Education.
At present, under provisions of P.L. 95-561, adultbasic and secondary level educational pro-grams are established in each of the fifty states,the District of Columbia, American Samoa,Guam, Puerto Rico, the Trust Territory of the PacificIslands, the Virgin Islands, and the NorthernMariana islands. Funds are available to state andlocal education agencies to meet the costs ofinstruction, to employ and train qualified adulteducators, and to develop specialized curric-ulum and techniques appropriate for adultlearners.
The 1978 amendments mandate the states, inunusually specific language, to conduct vigorousprograms of outreach for those most in need ofinstruction In basic skills, to provide suchassistance to these potential students as flexibleschedules, transportation and child care help,and to consult with a broad range of public and
private Interests and organizations In preparationof state plans and In their implementation.
The statute Itself lists representatives of businessand Industry, labor unions, public and privateeducational agencies and Institutions, churches,fraternal and voluntary organizations, communityorganizations, state and local manpower andtraining agencies, and representatives of specialadult populations, including residents of ruralareas, residents of urban areas with high rates ofunemployment, adults with limited Englishlanguage skills, and institutionalized adults asrequired to be Involved In developing the planand carrying It out "especially with regard to theexpansion of the delivery of adult educationservices through those agencies, institutions, andorganizations."
Enrollments in programs funded under the AdultEducation Act have Increased from 37,991 infiscal year 1965 to almost two million/peopleserved by fiscal year 1980.
The section that follows summarizes the provisionsof this legislation from. 1964 to 1981.
