I. Funding Opportunity Description 

Purpose of Program 

The purpose of the Literacy 

Information and Communication

(Centers) is to provide for the 

dissemination of highest-quality 

resources using various approaches 

(such as highlighting online materials, 

face-to-face technical assistance, 

distance learning, and discussion lists) 

through partnerships with adult 

education and related organizations to 

help practitioners use evidence-based 

instructional practices that improve 

outcomes in adult learners’ literacy 

skills. The Centers will organize training 

and workshops based on Institutedeveloped materials, as well as provide 

assistance in using online instructional 

resources provided through LINCS. The 

Centers are intended to play a vital role 

in helping the Institute fulfill its 

authorized responsibilities to establish a 

national electronic database of 

information that disseminates 

information to the broadest possible 

audience within the literacy and basic 

skills field and a communication 

network for literacy programs, 

providers, social service agencies, and 

students. These grants will be awarded 

as cooperative agreements, as the 

Institute will be substantially involved 

with the grantees in the implementation 

of the funded activities. The Institute 

has grouped states into the following 

regions, for purposes of awarding these 

grants: 

Region I: Connecticut, Delaware, 

Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, 

Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, 

New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, 

Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, 

Vermont, and Wisconsin.

period. 

c. Based on the results of the 

professional development maps and 

needs assessment, develop a plan to 

establish and maintain partnerships 

with organizations and groups of 

administrators, state staff, project 

directors, and professional developers to 

assist with information dissemination in 

the region. For more information on 

partnerships: http://www.nifl.gov/nifl/

recognized national experts for partners 

and partners’ constituents, as approved 

by the Institute. Establish a Regional 

Training Team made up of liaisons from 

each state partner to coordinate and
