Do you want to learn how to make health information accessible to people of all literacy levels? Join the Health Education and Literacy Organization (HELO) for our first fall GBM on Thursday, August 31st at 5:30pm! Come learn about our organization and how you can get involved!
Health Education and Literacy Organization is established for the purpose of bridging the health literacy disparity in local and national communities and furthering health education. We provide students at UF, particularly those interested in the health professions, opportunities to serve our Gainesville community by improving access to health information, and editing medical documents for low-literacy accessibility.
Health Education and Literacy Organization also promotes health education by advocating for initiatives that improve the quality and accessibility of healthcare for all people. These include cultural competence, literacy accessibility, and advocacy for underserved communities.
