Greetings,

The California Health Literacy Initiative is excited to announce the launch
of its online Health Literacy Resource Center!  To visit the Resource
Center, please go to:  www.cahealthliteracy.org.

This Health Literacy Resource Center is a unique website, providing a
one-stop-shop of Web-based health literacy resources.  The Resource Center
is intended for literacy professionals, health care providers, patient
educators, adult learners, and anyone who seeks a clear understanding of
health information.  There are ten categories of information provided,
including a directory of “who’s who” in health literacy, easy-to-read
information on over 30 diseases, health literacy training and consultation
information, and multicultural and multilingual health information.

Please share this information with others!  Also, if your organization's
website (or an organization's website that you know of) would like to have a
direct link to our Resource Center, please contact me directly and I will
email the "button" to you for that cross list.  My contact information is
listed below.

Finally, if you know of any sites or organizations that should be included
on the Resource Center, please send referrals to Faith Ruperto, Health
Literacy Coordinator, at:  faithruperto@caliteracy.org.  Criteria for
inclusion in the Resource Center is listed on its home page, and we will
update the site on a monthly basis.

Thanks,
Beccah Rothschild
Health Literacy Manager
