I like the simplicity of the Ask Me 3 program and am using it in a
program targeting Spanish speakers.  All the brochures and posters are
available in Spanish, which is very helpful.

Mindy,
To add to the plug for AskMe3, it is also designed to train patients as
well as providers. You can find it at:
http://www.askme3.org/

Also, look at the the online videos from AMA's group: Educating
Physicians on Controversies in Health
http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/15369.html 

Check this out for lots of links to other good resources: 

The Health Literacy area of the ALE Wiki:

Good luck!

With regard to training for health care professionals, consider the ASK
ME 3 program. It targets healthcare organizations and professionals.

With regard to patients, consider the programs from Stanford Univ (Dr.
Kate Lorig and colleagues). They include a 6 week program known as the
Chronic Disease Self Management Program (CDSMP) as well as programs
targeted to individuals with specific diseases (eg, HIV, arthritis,
etc).
