Urgent Action Requested from the JNCL-NCLIS
Dear Language Advocates,
We are within reach of seeing the World Language Advancement and Readiness Grant Program authorized by Congress.
Your advocacy over the past few years has already gotten us so far...
Now, your voice will be absolutely critical during these next few days as the House and Senate consider authorizing the program...
Please TAKE ACTION TODAY to show your support for this expansion of World Language Programming in K-12 districts across the country!
It only takes a few minutes to make a world of difference for the future of multilingualism in this nation.
Kind Regards,
Bill Rivers
Executive Director
