Hi Everyone,

I am passing on this recommendation from the American Medical
Association for the Health Literacy Institutes: Summer and Fall
trainings in clear health communication. There was so much interest in
our recent discussion about using pictures for health education
materials, that I know many of you are interested in this. I also think
it is encouraging to see a training of this sort recommended by the
American Medical Association. It shows that they are on board with at
least this aspect of health literacy!

All the best,
Julie
