There are also brochures, recipe books and a nice set of pictorial recipes. You will find ordering information for each material and the Web address if it has one. The guides are: * The Health and Literacy Compendium * Culture, Health and Literacy. If you would like hard copies of these guides you can e-mail me personally and I'll send you free copies. They are also available online at: The Health & Literacy Special Collection www.worlded.org/us/health/lincs This site has health curricula and activities for literacy or ESOL classes, health brochures in easy-to-read English as well as other languages, information about incorporating health into literacy classes, and information about addressing low-literate populations from health institutions. We are looking for more materials which could help teach health to low-literate poluations. If you or anyone else on the listserve knows of some good materials, please let me know. We can Web publish curricula, teaching activities, or easy-to-read health brochures if they are not already online, and we can link to other health or literacy sites. Please check out the Health & Literacy Special Collection, and feel free to contact me if you have any questions! Cheers, Julie Julie McKinney Coordinator, Health & Literacy Special Collection World Education (617) 482-9485 jmckinney@worlded.org
