The webinar will focus on developing participants’ skills to communicate complex health information in ways people can understand. Clear and simple health messages & materials help all audiences and members of your community (especially those with limited literacy skills) read, understand, and act on health information.

At the end of the course, participants will be able to:
– Recognize health literacy, language and culture as potential barriers to communicating public health messages.
– Use health literacy tools and techniques to assess the readability and actionability of materials & messages.
– Apply plain language principles to public health materials & messages to enhance ease of use for all readers.
