Achieving Healthier Futures: One Step at a Time

Dear Health Literacy practitioners,
I invite you to read the LINCS resource Achieving Healther Futures: One Step at a Time and share your thoughts. 

The key focus of the guide is to: 

  • Identify how intellectuation and developmental disabilities affect an individuals health.
  • Exlplore how labels may cause more difficulties for indivuals with health literacy and health related issues.
  • Present communication strategies such as person-first language.
  • Discuss challenging behaviors.
  • Challenging Behaviors. 

After reviewing this resource, consider sharing at least one take away. How will you use this information in your program or classroom?

Thanks, 
Kathy Tracey
