Abstract	This document profiles 31 federal programs from which funding for adult literacy may be available. The document's three sections present descriptions of the following types of sources of funding and programs: (1) single pieces of legislation that contribute the major federal share of federal support for adult education in the United States; (2) federal programs in which basic skills or English-as-a-second language instruction for out-of-school youth and adults is an authorized activity; and (3) relatively small research and demonstration projects. Each program description lists the program's enabling legislation, states the program's purpose, lists its funding, explains local program access, and provides the name and address of a federal contact. The following are among the programs profiled: community technology centers; Even Start; Pell Grants; Life Skills for State and Local Prisoners Program; Star Schools Program; Reading First; Early Reading First; 21st Century Community Learning Centers; vocational/technical education; federal work-study programs; vocational rehabilitation; the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act; Head Start; Temporary Assistance to Needy Families; refugee and entrant assistance; library services and technology; welfare-to-work formula grants; statewide workforce investment activities for youths, adults, and dislocated workers; the National Institute for Literacy; and programs providing education to Native American Indians, Native Hawaiians, and Alaskan Natives.
