a transparent image used to ensure positioning on the web pageLinking Agent Directory | Online Chat | Bulletin Board

This Directory will provide you with a brief description of the current work of your fellow Linking Agents. We have also provided you with contact information. We encourage you to share information about your role as a Linking Agent and the programs and interventions that transpire within your district.

We want to see YOU, the Linking Agents, in this directory! If you are a Linking Agent, and your biography and/or picture are not listed in this directory, please send them to us (electronically or through the mail)!

We would like each of you to send us a picture of yourself (it's always nice to see a face with a name), a short one-paragraph biography, and your school district logo. It is preferable that you send these items electronically, however, if that is not possible (or if it's easier for you to do it through the mail), then please send them to us via regular mail.

Please send these items to Miriam at mgerver@air.org.

If you would like to send these items through the mail, send them to:
Ms. Miriam Gerver
American Institutes for Research
1000 Thomas Jefferson St., N.W., Suite 400
Washington, DC 20007

If you have any questions about these materials or need help in any way, please contact Miriam at mgerver@air.org or 202-295-6857.
