Project LIFE, which began in October 1987, was a model program that involved a coalition of community agencies in addressing the problem of adult illiteracy in a community college setting, enhancing participants' employability, and providing them with career adaptability. To improve outreach efforts, program planners made heavy use of commercial television as an awareness and instructional medium. Other project objectives were to increase public awareness of the complexities and problems associated with adult illiteracy while promoting literacy as a value within the community; to combine the resources of the major literacy providers in addressing the pervasive and complex problem of adult illiteracy; and to provide prevocational workshops to enhance employability, affect employment, provide career adaptability, and explore technical/vocational fields. Described in the body of the report are the project's promotional campaign, personnel and office procedures, inservice and intake components, class format, instructional materials, roles of the counselors, advisory board, and volunteers, and project evaluation and conclusions. Project materials related to most of these areas are contained in 11 appendixes, which also include student handouts and a student survey. (MN)
