Currently, it is required that 2% of total Adult Basic Education (ABE) funding in Minnesota be set aside to provide statewide supplemental services such as staff development, technological development, support for disabled learners, support for communities of color, distance learning, and other innovative projects. Non-profit organizations or professionals aligned with consortiums are awarded supplemental service grants on a yearly basis to provide a variety of statewide activities. Learning Disabilities Association (LDA) of Minnesota again received supplemental services grant funding for FY 2005. The purpose of this first issue of the 2004-2005 school year is to describe LDA grant activities available to any ABE program manager, instructor, tutor, or learner in the state of Minnesota at no cost. LDA's FY 2005 grant activities all: (1) support ABE services statewide; (2) focus on educational results; and (3) promote outcome-based achievement for adult learners. Other topics covered in this issue include: (1) diagnostic assessment; (2) practitioner circles; (3) information and consultation; and (4) LDA of Minnesota.
