Items included in the packet are the following: a statement of the "right to learn"; 20 questions and answers about adult literacy; a list of ideas for promoting literacy in the community; literacy-related media slogans; a list of literacy promotion ideas, both those that are easily accomplished and those that are more complex; a checklist of community contacts; ways in which churches and other community groups can help the literacy movement; facts about human investment in Michigan; local sources for assistance; sample handouts for open houses, sample logos and art work; and public service announcements for radio stations.
