Designing Materials on HIV/AIDS/STIs for Low-Literate Audiences is available at no charge to users in developing countries. It was produced by Family Health International and the Program for Appropriate Technology and Health (PATH) with funding from the U.S. Agency for International Development through the Implementing AIDS Prevention and Care Project (IMPACT), which is managed by FHI. Recognizing that many concepts in HIV/AIDS are difficult to convey to low-literate or non-literate audiences, this 155-page guide relies heavily on illustrations, is printed in a larger-than-usual typeface, and features clear, easy-to-understand explanations. To request a copy, please send your complete address to <AIDSpubs@fhi.org>. Users in developed countries will be asked to cover postage and shipping costs." HRSA (US Health Resources and Services Resource Admin): "Health literacy information and examples of HRSA health literacy activities can now be found at: http://www.hrsa.gov/quality/healthlit.htm. A special thank you to the HRSA Health Literacy Work Group for their efforts in working with HRSA staff and grantees to raise awareness of health literacy. These efforts are important as we continue to improve access to care and the quality of care. If you have ideas that may improve the usability of this site, send them to me at ljohnston-lloyd@hrsa.gov." ******************************** Linda S. Potter, DrPH Family Health Research 56 N.
