SUPPLEMENT Issue
The collaborative effort with NELRC (New England Literacy Resource Center) provided WE LEARN our first opportunity to publish writings by students and teachers on some of the issues related to women and literacy. This effort created far more energy and enthusiasm than we anticipated. We received many more high quality writings than would fit in the print version of the issue. Due to our mission and vision, WE LEARN is able to use our website to make available the additional writings not published.

We hope you enjoy this supplemental issue and use it along with the originally published version of The Change Agent Issue 19. The articles with lessons plans, discussion questions, or other useful resources are highlighted here in red.
