Healthy Roads Media (www.healthyroadsmedia.org) has health 
information that focuses on low-literacy and non-English speaking 
populations.  Some of the materials are not written at a low reading 
level but almost everything is available in other formats (audio, 
multimedia and web-based video) to help provide health information 
access for hard to reach groups.
