Kate Singleton is finishing up an adult ESL health literacy toolkit for Virginia that should be up on the Web this summer. Meanwhile some of her health picture stories are available at    
http://www.cal.org/ncle/healthlit.htm and more should be available online soon.

You need to contact Kate Singleton who has put together numerous
excellent materials on health. She is with the Fairfax County VA Adult
and Community Ed program. Also, you try this site

I am looking for existing materials or curricula on "how to access
health care in the U.S." that have been designed specifically for ESL
classes. If anyone knows of any ESL programs that regularly teach
health
care access skills, that would also be useful information.
Thanks!
