Twenty years ago, when Ken Blanchard worked at Ford’s Lima plant, he read that one in five Americans read at a third or fourth grade level and another 20 percent at an eighth grade level.
Blanchard didn’t believe it at first — until he stopped to think about co-workers and others he knew who couldn’t read. So, after retiring from Ford, Blanchard accepted the position as Executive Director of the Literacy Council in Lima, whose mission is to teach adults to read.
