    I was Executive Director of the Carl and Ruth Shapiro Family Foundation during the time when we supported CAST in 2008-2009 for the Read-with-Me eBooks Project.

This project was an outstanding example of Universal Desgn for Learning (UDL), benefitting all learners who may be struggling with their reading skills. The President of the Foundation, Ronny Zinner, and I went CAST's headquarters in Wakefield to see first-hand how this project worked.
