[HealthLiteracy 507] resources for collaborationMarg Rose bcmrose at telus.netWed Dec 20 16:06:23 EST 2006
Loved your web page reference. IT's full of concrete ideas, and respects where people are, embedded in their own references. Most adult literacy programs in Canada are slanted to employment-related outcomes, since federal funding for projects is from Human Resources and Skill development, likely. Family literacy seems to offer more range for collaboration with health professionals, do you find? I prepared a similar encouraging list of resources for collaboration for literacy and health care providers (see attached) and presented it at a summer institute here and at a national literacy summit in Quebec City in October.. Many of you will find your wonderful work championed. Keep it up! A health literacy movement will depend on reaching a critical mass of voices speaking out and resources being allocated to this promising work.
