The resources are for all organizations that interact and communicate with people about health, including public health departments, healthcare providers and facilities, health plans, government agencies, non-profit, community and advocacy organizations, childcare and schools, the media, and health-related industries. The site features health literacy organizations by state and planning tools to use the National Action Plan to Improve Health Literacy.
