Subject: [NIFL-HEALTH:4591] Spanish language Health education materials
for Latinos

Hello,

I am trying to locate pamphlets/booklets designed for Latinos/Hispanics
in Spanish dealing with asthma, HIV/AIDS, STDs, tuberculosis, hepatitis,
flu, pneumonia, organ transplantation. Since most Spanish speaking
Latinos also have low literacy, low literacy materials would be
particularly helpful.

Does anyone have information on this?

Thanks,

Margarita
