It's no too early (nor too late) to begin planning how you will get involved this year. As you may know, Health Literacy Month (HLMonth) is a grassroots event. This means that you can participate in whatever ways make sense to you, your organization, and your community. Feel free to be creative and perhaps even whimsical -- just make sure that your HLMonth event highlights the importance of understandable health information. To learn more, I encourage you to visit the HLMonth website at www.healthliteracymonth.org. You'll find many valuable resources there including HLMonth FAQ's, health literacy facts, sample materials from other events, and a downloadable HLMonth logo. While you're at the website, please make sure to also visit the HLMonth map where you can see what others have done or are planning to do this year. Please add your HLMonth event to the map. In honor of our 5th anniversary, let's aim to have HLMonth events in an record-setting number of states, provinces, countries, and continents! Get involved in HLMonth 2004! Together, we can make a difference, ~Helen Helen Osborne M.Ed., OTR/L Health Literacy Consulting - www.healthliteracy.com Health Literacy Month - www.healthliteracymonth.org E-mail: Helen@healthliteracy.com Phone: 508-653-1199 31 Highland Street #201, Natick, MA 01760 Sign up for the free "What's New" e-list at www.healthliteracy.com
