| contents | Family Reading Project, First Year Report. Solorzano, Ronald W. Adult Basic Education Community Organizations Family Literacy Family Programs High Interest Low Vocabulary Books Hispanic Americans Home Programs Libraries Literacy Education Program Evaluation Program Implementation Reading Instruction Reading Materials The first program year evaluation of the Family Reading project addresses implementation issues at the national and local levels relating to the literacy intervention model designed for the project. The project is a collaborative effort between the National Council of La Raza and the Educational Testing Service to improve literacy levels of Latino adults participating in community-based organizations nationwide. The project provides for: (1) direct instruction to parents; (2) use of home literacy events to involve both parents and children at home in literacy-related activities; and (3) creation of a library of high-interest books for participant use. The project management team consists of the Project Director; a Literacy Specialist who provides technical assistance and liaison; and the Chief Consultant, who assists with curriculum development, evaluation, and training. Initially, five community-based organizations implemented the program; others will be added in the second and third program years. The report focuses on implementation of the Parent and Child Literacy Intervention Model, and addresses instructional and training issues relative to the Chief Consultant's participation in the family reading program. The report outlines general evaluation questions for the first year that relate to specific program objectives, presents recommendations and discussion by the National Council of la Raza and the local project sites, briefly discusses design and implementation problems, and concludes with a discussion of evaluation results.
