Health Literacy Wiki

This wiki is being developed as part of a New York Medical College[1] project with funding from the National Networks of Libraries of Medicine Middle Atlantic Region.

This page will serve as a clearinghouse for studies and resources on health literacy and health communication, and information about related training opportunities and programs.

This is a collaborative effort. Your contribution will make this wiki a valuable resource for health literacy information. Here are some basic instructions for adding content.
