Question: Hello,

My name is Kaitlyn Dixon and I am a Community health Education Intern with UAB Health Smart. UAB Health Smart works with minority health disparities and offers free of charge health screenings, nutrition consultations, and meetings with an exercise physiologist. We seek to educate the community and to offer preventative care that can reduce instances of disease as well as reduce health care costs for our clients.
One of our current efforts is to find new health education materials to offer to our clients regarding how to care for themselves before health issues even happen and to help them learn to manage disease once it has set in. We were wondering if you either had any free resources we could disperse or knew of any reliable health organizations that could offer such information for our clients.

Thank you for your time.

Answer:

Good morning, Kaitllyn. Thanks for contacting CTB.

We don't have health education resources on file within this database; so we suggest that you explore our "Learn a Skill" section, within the Database of Best Practices. That section contains descriptions and links to organizations that may be able to assist you.
