Race to GED & Bilingual Publicity
In fall 2004, the Race to GED garnered some attention with its presence at Richmond's Que Pasa Festival, an annual celebration of Latino culture. In December, a bilingual publication serving the Hispanic community, Los Mejores Trabajos en Richmond ("The Best Jobs in Richmond"), featured the Resource Center's GED Helpline. The documents below include the excellent article, both in Spanish and in English, about the Race to GED and how to get started. Please feel free to reprint this with proper citation.
