Good afternoon!
Health
Education and Literacy Organization (HELO) are hosting a workshop this Thursday
at 3 p.m about the importance of health literacy. Health literacy prevents
countless Americans from accessing better health simply due to a lack of
understanding. This is a very important topic that more pre-professionals need
to be aware of and thus we're hosting this workshop to educate and advocate
for. Can this please be sent to the pre-health listserv?
Thank you so much!!

About
90 million Americans are illiterate or read below an 8th level. Much of health
information is given out at a 10th-grade level, preventing access to better
health for many. Join us this Thursday to learn more about how to bridge this
disparity and make an impact on underserved communities!
