I would like to offer another booklet for consideration. NIAMS/NIH developed
a bilingual (Spanish/English) booklet on arthritis called "Tengo Artritis/Do
I Have Arthritis?" A note: We are revising the Spanish translation, and will
be changing a few of the graphics, but in the mean time, I hope you will
visit the site or order up to 50 copies. They are free.
A note on the target audience: I decided it was time to break the rules by
appealing to not one audience but went for three. 1) The Spanish-speaking
audience, 2)the bilingual audience who may be able to converse to friends
and family members in both languages, and 3) the English speaking audience.
Since we are constantly revising our materials, I would welcome your ideas
for improvement. Compliments are accepted, as well!

Joanne Schwartzberg asked me a while ago if I would share this list of ETR
sites I had compiled, and I said I would. Sorry it's taken me so long to
post, Joanne. Better late than never!
