Communicate For Health Justice (CFHJ)'s "Miscommunications in Communication" series is LIVE in workshop form! You don't want to miss it.

"Health literacy is the degree to which individuals have the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic health information needed to make appropriate health decisions." (HRSA, 2019)

In this workshop, we argue and evidence that "health literacy" is not a one size fits all, and in fact, the term can push Black communities and other communities on the defense when it's used incorrectly.

In one hour, we'll address the historical context of "literacy" in Black communities, highlight language to avoid, and offer examples of how to move forward in the literacy space with racial equity in mind.
