- Tutorial on Health Policy Communications Available on KaiserEDU.org
KaiserEDU.org has available a narrated slide tutorial on health policy communications by Jackie Judd, Kaiser vice president and senior advisor for communications and a former broadcast journalist. The tutorial provides information and guidance on how to effectively communicate with the media and suggestions for how to frame key messages for print, broadcast and radio interview settings.

- Making Your Printed Materials Readable for Older Adults
For many people, particularly older adults, health information can be difficult to understand and act upon. There are some special considerations when developing written materials for this population, taking into account alterations to learning and memory that may affect an older reader’s ability to absorb content. In addition, the way information is presented may need to accommodate the cognitive and physical changes that often accompany old age. This tip sheet from the National Institute on Aging offers ideas for how to tailor health information so that it fits the needs of your older readers.
- Logos & Stylesheets for many of the Hartford Foundation's programs are now available through bandwidthonline.org!
