Why 36 million American adults can't read enough to work — and how to help them |
|
|
"In the U.S., 36 million adults lack the basic literacy skills needed to sustain employment -- yet education programs for this group serve only about 1.5 million, and funding continues to be cut at state and federal levels. Meanwhile, stigma can keep adults from reconnecting with the classroom. [PBS journalist] Kavitha Cardoza reports from Maine, whose governor has pledged to increase funding for adult education." |
