Health Literacy Resources
Description
A comprehensive collection of resources designed to support educators in developing patient educational tools that are easy to understand. Addressing health literacy means more than addressing the grade level of written materials. These resources provide comprehensive guidance about developing educational resources in a variety of formats that patients of all literacy levels can understand and act on to help them better manage their health.
