We are putting together our Ninth Annual IHA Health Literacy Conference and we are looking for brilliant and talented Breakout Session presenters. Do you have expertise in a skill area of health literacy that you would be willing to share? We are looking for 10 outstanding sessions to present to our attendees at our conference, scheduled for May 6-7, 2010 in Irvine, California. The conference theme is "Health Literacy in the Real World: Programs & Solutions That Work." If you have experience in one of the areas below, or another area that would be of particular use to those working with low literate patients and clients, and you are interested in teaching a 90-minute, hands-on, interactive workshop at our conference, read on and follow this link.
We are particularly interested in receiving Breakout Session presentations on these topics (this is not a comprehensive list; we will carefully and fairly review each submission on its merits):
- Fotonovelas
- Cultural competency related to health literacy
- Communicating with LEP (limited English proficiency) clients
- Using social media (Facebook, Twitter, blogs, text messages, etc.)
- Use of visuals/pictograms in patient education material design
- Visual design and comprehension
- Education program design
- Specific, replicable models in health literacy
- Other health literacy-related topics focused on providing skills or tools
