What are the realities of Latina adult learners? This question guided the design of this research project. Utilizing a focus group approach, six Latinas in Kansas City, Kansas, had the opportunity to speak freely about themselves and to share their stories with each other. In this article, the author focuses on the voices of these women without outside analysis and interpretation to capture the very essence of their experiences as a main avenue for understanding the changing Adult Basic Education population, as well as to validate their powerful and contradicting experiences. This research seeks to understand the realities of Latinas as they immigrate to the United States and discover that to build a more secure life for themselves and their families they need to learn English to fully function in this new country. A transcribed translation of the Latinas' voices from Spanish to English is also presented.
