"I've struggled all my life because I couldn't read or write very well. I've always wanted to be a lector at church and help on different committees, but shied away because I was a slow reader. I feel that if there are children in my same situation, that could get the extra help they need, they could go through school and life with the confidence to do anything." Jami J. Langel
