5/25/12: Thousands of dollars of grants
will be awarded to help support parents and children by encouraging them to
make reading and writing a family activity. Since 1996, more than 4 million
dollars in family literacy grants have been handed out through the Barbara Bush
Foundation's Maine Family Literacy Initiative. Today's announcement will be at
the University of New England at 10:30. Maine's First Lady Ann LePage will join
former First Lady Barbara Bush at that event.
