Thanks for reminding everyone of Health Literacy Month!

This is the eighth year that advocates everywhere are letting the
world about the importance of understandable health information. Since
Health Literacy Month first began, thousands of advocates have held
hundreds of awareness-raising and training events.

I encourage you to add to our collective list of accomplishments. It
is easy to do -- just complete and submit the Health Literacy Month
events form at www.healthliteracymonth.org. By doing so, you will
serve as an inspiration and resource for health literacy advocates
everywhere.

Together, we CAN and DO make a health literacy difference!
