[Susan Bauckus]

We are pleased to announce that the National Heritage Language Resource Center (NHLRC) has been funded for a second four-year grant by the U.S. Department of Education's Title VI. NHLRC, one of fifteen Title VI-funded National Language Resourc eCenters, is hosted by the UCLA Center for World Languages and directed by Professor Olga Kagan. The Center's mission is to develop effective approaches to teaching heritage language learners by creating a research base and pursuing curriculum design, materials development, and teacher education. Recently U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan praised the Center's "innovative" work. Visit the NHLRC website at www.nhlrc.ucla.edu <http://www.nhlrc.ucla.edu/> .
