Are you attending the 2019 COABE conference? If so, plan to attend some or all of the eight exciting and interactive presentations in the brand-new Health Literacy strand. Here’s some of what you’ll hear:
- How health literacy impacts the health of adult learners and what you can do to better support them
- Ways to connect adult learners with community health organizations to provide feedback on how to better communicate with at-risk populations
- Successful methods and materials to teach health in ESL and ABE classrooms, including how to partner with community organizations
- Helping immigrants improve health literacy and become more engaged with their health and healthcare
- Connecting adult students with health career opportunities
Hope to see you there! See the COABE conference website for more information or contact Health Literacy strand coordinator Steve Sparks.
