What the women say...

“My husband used to tell me who to vote for; now I tell him that I can read the names and will choose who to vote for myself”.

“When I went to town I was embarrassed to ask someone where the doctor's was. Now I can read the signs myself”.

“I feel more confident when communicating with others, introducing myself to people, and I can write letters and keep records in my home”.
