[OPLINLIST] Health Literacy Month Oct. 1-31

[Jo Budler]

I just received information about Health Literacy Month which is
scheduled for October 1-31.   The National Network of Medical Libraries
sent out this information and I thought you might find it useful: 

 


Share Your Story for Health Literacy Month
<http://nnlm.gov/mcr/bhic/?p=5343> 


Think of the time you first knew that health literacy mattered. This
realization may have come from an event, interaction, or experience you
had perhaps as a patient, family member, friend, student, teacher,
librarian, or health professional. Now go to the Health Literacy Month
website http://www.healthliteracymonth.org/ to find how to can share
your story through their website, email, twitter, facebook...

Are you at a community organization or library? How about helping people
you serve send their story in. Have an event at your place where you
bring people together to talk about their experiences and help them put
it in writing and photos!
