One publication I can direct you to is a Brownfields Guide for low-literate residents ( Spanish and English speakers/readers). We used a cooperative composing model with a resident panel to derive easy to read and navigate language and pages. You can download the guide at:http://www.uri.edu/ce/wq/has/html/has_brownflds.html The journal article describing this study is: . Zarcadoolas, C., Timm,E., Bibeault,L.(2001).
