The next section compares actual accomplishments to objectives for fiscal year 1993: (1) enroll about 25% (200) of those inmates who need literacy instruction in small group workshops, adult basic education classes, or one-on-one tutoring; (2) significantly improve raw reading test scores or other post-test measures of 75% of the inmates who complete the program; (3) inform 100% of the inmates about the program; (4) prepare individualized educational plans (IEPs) for 100% of the participants in Project READ based on their personal literacy goals and long-range educational needs; and (5) double the number of tutors and learners presently enrolled in the Vets Incarcerated tutoring program. Proposed and actual expenditures are compared. Activities undertaken are described, including materials acquired, training, and a job skills workshop. The role of the library, contributions of other organizations, facilities used, and project impact are described. Attachments include a form for an individual education program, basic skills diploma, newsletter article, materials inventory, and project formative and summative evaluation. (MES)
