For more information about the initiative, click on http://www.projectshine.org/metlife/index.htm. We're interested in other organizations which might be doing similar programs. Does anyone have a sense of how many other organizations have health literacy efforts geared toward immigrants? We're hoping to get some local coverage about our initiative and would like to be able to give a reporter a sense of how widespread the concern over this issue is and the number of organizations which are working on it. Anyone have some quick facts and figures about efforts in health literacy for immigrants? Thanks! All best, Daryl **************** Daryl Gordon Assistant Director, Project SHINE 1601 N.
