I am proud to report that they rate Houston and the READ Commission as their greatest success. Unfortunately. urban coordinating councils like the READ Commission are prevented by statute from applying directly for Federal literacy funds. They cannot directly access literacy funds in the Adult Education Act. the Stewart McKinney Homeless Assistance Act. the Immigration and Naturalization Act. the Family Support Act anduntil recentlythe Job Training Partnership Act. The bill takes a step In the right direction. It is my understanding that perfecting language will be added to insure that urban coordinating councils have direct access to Federal fundsand a voice In the planning process at the national.
