    Application Forms: The National Institute for Literacy has no

Fellowship Program. Applicants must submit a detailed budget, 
curriculum vitae or resume, and sufficient information to allow the 
Institute to determine the merits of the proposed activities and rate 
the application according to the criteria and any applicable 
priorities. Applicants are also required to submit the following 
assurances and certifications:
    (a) Assurances--Non-Construction Programs (Standard Form 424B).
    (b) Certification Regarding Lobbying; Debarment, Suspension, and 
other Responsibility Matters; and Drug-Free Workplace Requirements (ED 
90-0013).
    (c) Disclosure of Lobbying Activities (Standard Form LLL) (if 
applicable) and instructions.
    The assurances, and certifications must each have an original 
signature. No award can be made unless these forms are submitted.
    Priorities: (a) The Director invites applications for Literacy 
Leader Fellowships that meet the following priorities for 1995.
    (b) The priorities for 1995 are major areas of concern in the 
literacy field that are currently being addressed in the Institute's 
work.
    (c) An application may be awarded up to 5 bonus points for 
addressing a priority or priorities, depending on how well the 
application meets the priority or priorities.
    (d) The publication of these priorities does not bind the Institute 
to fund only applications addressing priorities. The Director is 
especially interested in fellowship applications that address one or 
more of the priorities, but not to the exclusion of other significant 
issues that may be proposed by applicants.
    (e) The priorities selected from the regulations for 1995 are as 
follows:
    (1) Work force and Workplace literacy. Millions of American adults 
need educational services either to enter to work force or to upgrade 
their work-related skills. Increasingly literacy programs are offered 
in the context of the workplace. Workforce education and development is 
a top national priority and a critical focus in the literacy field.
    (2) Family Literacy. Educational research and practice continue to 
demonstrate the fundamental importance of the family in creating both 
the motivation and conditions for a child's readiness for school and 
continued learning throughout life. This intergenerational literacy 
connection is having an increasingly significant effect on the funding, 
design, and operation of Federal, State, and local programs for 
children as well as adults.
    (3) English as a Second Language/Immigration and Literacy. Recent 
studies confirm that adults with limited English proficiency (LEP) 
experience a variety of social and economic disadvantages: lower wages, 
limited employment opportunities, limited access to public services, 
and barriers to becoming active members of their communities and 
neighborhoods. ESL instruction is currently the largest and fastest 
growing component of the Adult 

[[Page 35803]]
Education Act, and the demand continues to increase dramatically. About 
two-thirds of all recent immigrants to America are LEP, and about 76% 
of the 12 to 14 million LEP adults in America are immigrants. Issues 
related to the education of immigrants and ESL services are of 
increasing importance to the literacy and adult education field.
    (4) Assessing Progress toward National Educational Goal 6. Goal 6, 
the adult literacy and lifelong learning goal, states that: ``By the 
year 2000, every adult American will be literate and will possess the 
knowledge and skills necessary to compete in a global economy and 
exercise the rights and responsibilities of citizenship.'' Gauging 
progress toward this goal is a primary concern of the Institute and a 
complex undertaking that challenges all sectors of the literacy field.
    As a result, there is growing interest in the development of 
innovative approaches for measuring and documenting this progress in a 
variety of service settings.
    (5) The Role of Adult Learners in Literacy and Adult Education 
Programs. As the primary consumers of literacy and adult education 
services, adult learners have the greatest personal stake in the 
quality of these services, and unique contributions to make in setting 
policy for, planning, and implementating programs. The Institute is 
interested in learning more about how current and former adult learners 
can play meaningful roles at every level of the literacy field 
nationwide.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: National Institute for Literacy: National 
Educational Goal 6, which is now included in the Goals 2000 Educate 
America Act, puts forward an ambitious agenda for adult literacy and 
lifelong learning in America. To further this goal, the Congress passed 
Public Law 102-73, the National Literacy Act of 1991, which is the 
first piece of national legislation to focus exclusively on literacy. 
The overall intent of the Act, as stated, is:

    To enhance the literacy and basic skills of adults, to ensure 
that all adults in the United States acquire the basic skills 
necessary to function effectively and achieve the greatest possible 
opportunity in their work and in their lives and to strengthen and 
coordinate adult literacy programs.

    In designing the Act, among the primary concerns shared by the 
Congress and literacy stakeholders was the fragmentation and lack of 
coordination among the many efforts in the field. To address these 
concerns, the Act created the National Institute for Literacy to:
    (A) Provide a national focal point for research, technical 
assistance and research dissemination, policy analysis and program 
evaluation in the area of literacy; and
    (B) Facilitate a pooling of ideas and expertise across fragmented 
programs and research efforts.
    Among the Institute's authorized activities is the awarding of 
fellowships to outstanding individuals who are pursuing careers in 
adult education or literacy in the areas of instruction, management, 
research, or innovation. These fellowships are to be awarded for 
activities that advance the field of adult education and literacy.

Literacy, 800 Connecticut Avenue NW., Suite 200, Washington, DC 20006.

implementing the Act, the National Institute for Literacy invites 
comment on the public reporting burden in this collection of 
information. Public reporting burden for this collection of information
